@Shaolin86 
 I don't understand that either. Erceg used grappling way more before coming to the ufc and he was very good with it so i can see people thinking he will hang with pantoja but Pantoja was using his Bjj on people at a far more advanced level than erceg was at the same time so I don't know where the better part came from.

People are way too high on Erceg. I’m a fan of the guy but going from Matt Schnell to Pantoja is too big of a jump imo

Feel like they've sent Pichel to die. They just showed his last knockout/finish... Seven years ago.

Yea, it gave me some hesitation. People just really love to root for the humble underdog, but there are levels to this.

Played Pichel at +520 with the intention to immediately cash out as the fight starts and he drops to +300. Works every time.
