MMA record keeping started on: Mar 2, 2019

Back to sports capping! Here are my picks for today. My ROI record is pretty bad at negative 23% but don't expect me to chases losses. Every pick is still flat 1 unit only !

Alexander Volkanovski (1.48) vs Max Holloway (2.81)

I like Max Holloway but I think the Holloway era is over. His career peaked when he went up to lightweight to fight Dustin Poirier. One of Holloway's greatest strengths was that most of his opponents would wilt in the later rounds when facing him but Poirier never did and neither did Volkanovski. I see history repeating itself as Volkanovski once again beats Holloway on the score cards.

My pick is Volkanovski.

Kamaru Usman 1.39 vs Jorge Masvidal 3.20

Masvidal has built his hype train taking out Darren Till, Ben Askren, and Nate Diaz and doing in style too via highlight KO or TKOs. However, Usman will humble him tonight. Masvidal took down Diaz pretty easy but Diaz is known for his average takedown defense. Usman is currently the best wrestler at welterweight. Masvidal also looked sort of gassed after the 3rd round. That's a red flag against a wrestling and grinding tank like Usman. I'm predicting Usman's grinding clinchwork and wrestling to eventually wear Masvidal out. Usman's got decent stand up but wrestling will win him decision via points.

My pick is Kamaru Usman.
