Damn I really want to challenge you on this fight.....**** it. Imma stick to Yamanaka SD and challenge Drinquor for the People's Championship.
Dammit!!!! All of you stop picking Nery, I wanted to quietly rack up yet another shocking upset of an undefeated iconic fighter that few are suspecting prediction on my record.
Nery is actually a betting favorite a lot of places, so really wouldn't be an upset.. Certainly not a shocking one.
Oh boy, here comes that bull**** Kyoguchi like narrative. I picked Nery when the match was announced a few months back. So kiss my ass.
How is it a BS narrative? Can't exactly call a potential future result "shocking" if the guy you're picking is a favorite on many sites.
Well, I can because when I picked him months ago after the match was first announced, no one had him as the favorite, and what are all these sites where he's the favorite? What are you basing this on BS's prediction? I know I'm obnoxious, a lot, but you're equally obnoxious with your not so subtle attempts at trying to tear down my longshot picks, I know some aren't right, but more often than not, I'm spot on or damn close. I go into every fight thinking outside the box, its probably hampered more than helped me, but I should get credit when I do and its successful. If he's such a favorite, pick Nery then goddamn it.
Yeah he opened as a favorite, but as you as well as I know there is often a wide fluctuation between what odds open and settle at. You can Google boxing odds and use the sites that aggregate/show you the different odds. I see Nery as a favorite, Even, you MIGHT be able to find Yamanka as a slight favorite on a few places but no more than that. What am I trying to tear down? You stated this would be a shocking upset, when that isn't reflected by the odds. At best it would be a minor upset, certainly not a shocking one.
It would be a shocking upset, Yamanaka is a P4P fighter and the best Bantamweight in the world, that's reflected in the number of smart people picking Yamanaka on here as opposed to Nery, I don't pay attention to odds, I don't care. I'm not attacking you, but you on occasion like to tear down my picks, its happened before, Browne-Chagaev comes to mind off the top of my head, and it annoys me when its out of you, because you're a close friend on here, I expect it out of the rest of the a-holes on here though. No one is in my head, so they don't know where I'm coming from sometimes, but when I pick a longshot that I truly believe in, I stick with it, and try not to bring anyone's attention to it, although sometimes they are just ringers that I switch late, like I'm about to do now. Hey @Drinquor, I'm switching to Crawford TKO (I'm not kidding) But regardless, like with my Sor Rungvisai, Horn and Berchelt picks, that **** was impressive and I'm very prideful, so I love it when I get **** right, and if Nery pulls it off, I picked him a while back and I don't care what the odds are now, I want credit for it anyway, since I was first. Yes, I'm that ****ing petty sometimes.
This is a 50/50 fight. Yamanaka is more skilled but he's getting really up there in age and Nery might be fighting him at a perfect time. Picking either isn't a long shot which is why I was so torned on this fight. Decided to go on whoever Drinquor didn't pick so I could challenge him haha
Just because you and I realize that, that doesn't mean everybody else did and its not a longshot. Know what I'm sayin'?
