The best reason to watch #UFCvegas57 tonight is the insanely talented @shavkatrakhmonov94 #ShavkatRakhmonov, who takes on veteran #NeilMagny. It’s not the #mainevent, but #Rakhmanov is a well-rounded, technical assassin from #Kazakhstan. I’ve actually been to his hometown of #Kokshetau in 1994-95, when I traveled there in college. I think he’s as good or better than #Chmiev, with a similar style and skill-set, but with intense discipline. You won’t regret tuning in to watch him. @actionman513 #ChrisCurtis provides another reason to tune in. Already one of my favorites in #MMA, the veteran has turned heads with two big upset wins and finds himself the favorite for the 1st time in his @UFC career.

II took five upsets today, but they’ll all likely be close fights. I like #Kelliher’s grappling, and feel the same for #Paiva. I took an upset in the main, but that was a tossup for me. It stands as a perceived weakness for both their opponents as well. I like #Durden and #Demopolous in their #underdog roles as well. There were some standout betting lines that could be interesting to follow. Seeing #Magny as such a heavy underdog (+375) is tough to see, but speaks to the talent of his opponent. Imagine being Nate Maness, who comes in 14-1 but a +850 dog in this. If I were betting, that’s the big upset I’d take, but think they got the winner right. I had a good week last week, going 9-4 and stand at 147-91 for the year, at about the half way point. (at Cold Spring Park)
