Rewatching Adesanya vs Whittaker 2. So far:
Rd 1 - Izzy 10-9
Rd 2 - Rob 10-9 (and not particularly close)
#UFC271
Rd 3 - Izzy 10-9 due to landing a couple more shots in a basically even round
Rd 4 - 10-9 Whittaker. He took Izzy down, took his back, threatened a choke, popped his head back 4-5x, while absorbing nothing but a couple calf kicks and glancing blows.

Honestly, I don’t see how anyone scores this worse than 2-2 for Rob thru 4 rounds.

My #UFC271 picks. Have a big parlay (see next tweet), money line bets on the rest, plus an extra bet on @bambamtuivasa to win by KO/TKO.
Here’s the parlay. You can break this up in two if you want a better chance of winning.

🧵 It's the weekend so let's have some fun. It's #memecoin season! Incredibly I've actually made money on a #dogcoin. That coin is @RoganInu $MRI. It's an incredible experience seeing the power of #crypto to rapidly mobilise a hive mind and create something unique 👨‍🦲🐶🥊 1/13
Despite success in #DeFi I've always lost money on #memecoins. I saw @ChadCaff and @chirocrypto mentioning $MRI. Good guys who put in the work, share gems with followers early, and work hard for their bags. I thought @joerogan narrative, dogs, @ufc... yeah that could work. 2/13
The marketing angle was clear, but through the team and power of the community a greater utility emerged... leveraging the treasury to support underpaid fighters. As a massive #boxing and #mma fan I love that. These guys are warriors and the pay structure is very top heavy. 3/13
