lulz i doubt anyone was even worried about Conor making weight
If he can make featherweight, he will be a pro at least.

OK, who is up for an Avatar bet?
I say, Khabib over Conor. (I like both but gotta pick one).
Fight has to have a decisive outcome (draw/cancelled fight doesn't count)
Winner chooses avatar for loser, pending
Amod
approval (no tranny dongs). I'm thinking maybe 3 month duration
Loser can choose to be banned for 1 year instead of accepting an avatar, though a Jay Cutler avatar is grounds for negating the entire wager.

I thought Khabib had the early edge in the mental warfare, but Conor's played this week perfectly. Definitely choosing the Irishman here. I keep coming back to the fact that he's been training for this fight for 3 years. Conor's defense will be good enough to exploit Khabib's openings. I predict Khabib becoming frustrated and his endless march forward will be his demise – he'll get caught in a risky, greedy takedown attempt.
Tony's open workout looked stupid. I just can't believe the guy is healthy coming into this fight. Anthony Pettis is better than his hurt and rusty opponent.
Formiga has the experience and the ground game to give Sergio Pettis problems. Pettis is a good fighter, he just gets caught in a bad matchup.
Lewis is a scary human being. I think he's going to have a huge win.
Dominick Reyes is my underdog pick. OSP is a killer, but this kid is putting it together.

Since this is an avatar bet, and time to wear the avatar bet is the currency, adjust the time according to the odds.
Standard avatar bet is 1 month. Since you're taking khabib, he is roughly a 2:1 favorite over conor. If conor wins and you stand by your bet of 3 months, you would have to wear the avatar for 6 months. Whereas the person betting on conor will only have to wear it for the betted 3 months if khabib wins.

Picking McGregor, Pettis, Reyes, Lewis and Waterson to win on the main card.
ESPN has been promoting the shit out of this fight. Half of their personalities don't know shit about MMA though.

Some awesome motherfucker is going to post valid links. We're trying to see it at the pub, but if it's a shitshow crowd-wise, streaming at home with beers is plan B. Just updating Ace Stream now and it's already getting me pumped for this!
