Tough and cold
We have a tough one this week folks. Finding the clitoris would have been much easier than trying to find some winners on this card because these are some tough ass fights to pick. However, last night I had a vision…it was of the one memory I have of my dead great grandmother before she passed away. She fled the nursing home for a nice steak dinner with my family at my house. I remember eating next to her while my parents were in the kitchen. As she chomped on the steak, she said to me with her mouth open and full of food, “Tough and cold…tough and cold. Just like where I live.” I chuckled to myself but then I realized she has come back and gave me that vision to help me get rich tonight. Thanks Grandma. This weekend, every pick has gotta be tough and cold. We’re going against the grain and with the picks everyone will hate, and I think it will pay off. With that being said, bear with me for some tough and cold picks below:
#1: Ilia Topuria ML +105:
Our first pick is Ilia Topuria. Volkanovski has been unstoppable at 145 and there is no real reason to think he should lose so that is why we are going to bet against him. Topuria is the up and coming guy, Volk just got knocked out and once you get slept you don’t come back the same fighter. Luke Rockhold, Kamaru Usman, Frankie Edgar are a few examples of this. I love Volk but the Spanish mobster El Matador is gonna somehow stop his reign tonight. Also, Topuria’s wife is an absolute missile and he has cool tattoos.
#2: Paulo Costa ML +185:
I have received a surprising amount of texts after the weigh in show from people telling me I looked just like a slightly more ripped up, Jewish, hairier version of Paulo Costa but with a bigger piece. I haven’t had the time to get back to all of you but I just wanted to say, thanks and I know.
I hate this pick because I am a huge Whittaker guy but I would have never picked DDP to destroy Whittaker like he did so because of that we gotta make the tough pick and go with the meme lord Paulo Costa. I think this fight is going to be nuts but I’m going with Costa I think he gets a signature win tonight.
#3: Over in Merab vs Cejudo, Over in Costa vs Whittaker, Under in Garry vs Neal parlay +336:
Merab and Cejudo’s hands are so soft they would actually cure Antonio Brown and Chandler Jones’ CTE if they hit them enough, no way this fight gets stopped unless Cejudo is just broke and didn’t train. Costa and Whittaker both drop absolute bombs but in a 3 rounder I like my chances that it goes the distance. Paulo went the distance with Yoel Romero and Whittaker went the distance with Adesanya, Till and Cannonier so I think they will both be able to handle the power of each other. Ian the Vegan Garry has just been getting deservingly flamed the past few months for living with his wife’s ex husband. All that anger he has built up from watching his wife get nailed by her ex lover will be taken out tonight against Geoff Neal. Neal also has dynamite in his hands, and I would love to see him turn Garry’s lights off as well. Either way, I don’t really care who wins as long as it happens in less than 2.5 rounds.
I was woken up this morning by this fat homeless dude fighting with the maintenance man for the second time this week so if any of these picks lose you can bet on me huntin’ that fucker down and whoopin’ some homeless as tonight.
You’re welcome for the picks,
Gail Lewis
