Betting Gaethje

This is the underdog, according to the best online sportsbooks. The Highlight has returned to his winning ways after losing his first two professionals, back-to-back, in 2017 and 2018. Gaethje has won his last three straight bouts. He KO’d James Vick at UFC Fight Night: Gaethje vs. Vick on August 25, 2018 at 1:27 of the first round in. Lincoln, Nebraska, United States. Then he KO’d Edson Barboza at UFC on ESPN: Barboza vs. Gaethje on March 30, 2019 at 2:30 of the second round in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. And more notoriously, he TKO’d ‘Cowboy’ Donald Cerrone at UFC Fight Night: Cowboy vs. Gaethje on September 14, 2019 at 4:18 of the first round in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

NY Post.com is not of the best UFC gambling sites. Notwithstanding that, it says now it’s the time to bet on Gaethje. I don’t necessarily agree, but I’m going to give it the benefit of the doubt. Because like me, it understands that UFC interim championships are meaningless and worthless. To wit; “The main event at an empty arena … is tagged as an interim title bout, but there is only one lightweight champion in MMA, Khabib Nurmagomedov.” Its reasons to bet on The Highlight include: Gaethje has a full camp to prepare; Ferguson has better cardio but is older and may be over-prepared, whatever that means; Ferguson has earned much respect but it’s from those who are easily impressed; and Ferguson has had to incur mental adjustments coupled with his brutal training regimen and topped by an aggressive weight cut.

Betting Ferguson

This is the favorite, per the best UFC gambling sites. El Cucuy has not lost since 2012. His latest win also came at Cerrone’s expense. Ferguson TKO’d Cowboy at UFC 238 on June 8, 2019 at 5:00of the second round in Chicago, Illinois, United States. That was Fergie’s 12th victory in a row. For reasons real or perceived, Ferguson is pissed off at Nurmagomedov. “He’s running like a dog with his tail between his legs,” said Tony of Khabib.

Now, El Cucuy is going to be facing Gaethje, not Nurmagomedov. You know, since The Eagle pulled out due to the pandemic. Which Cucuy may or may not believe has been orchestrated by Nurmagomedov to get out of fighting him. All things considered, Ferguson may very well be picturing Khabib’s face on top of Justin’s shoulders, and take his frustrations with Nurmagomedov out on The Highlight. You know who else is not a fan of Khabib – but is one of Gaethje? Eddie Alvarez.

“Justin Gaethje is one of my favorite fighter’s to watch. So I’m never ever going to say he shouldn’t fight somebody. I’ll watch him over Khabib any day of the week. He’s just fun to watch and this is my opinion only, I think Justin can knock Tony out I really do. I think he has the style to put Tony away and I would love to see that fight before the Khabib fight,” Alvarez said.

Our Pick: Once again, I agree with that NY Post article on the nature of interim titles. However, the author reminds me of Jeff Goldblum in The Great White Hype, believing his own bullshit about Peter Berg. You don’t rack up a 25-3 record, as Ferguson has, without both physical and mental fortitude. Take El Cucuy in the second round.
