Megan being +650 and Jan via KO in Round 2 or Sub at any point are the hottest bets at the casino.

I got Jan by KO for +460 which was great timing since I think its down to like +350 but most of my bets involve Izzy winning

Also took a shot at Nunes by points since it was +500

I used to throw a little (very little) cash on fights.  I feel like it was so easy to pick years ago.  it has gotten much more difficult over the past few years imo.  If I was really good at picking, I would want to have a website where people pay you for your picks.  That's a no lose situation!!!!!

Jan Blach went 5 years w/o getting a TKO/KO

Izzy has 4 KO's in 9 UFC appearances:

vs Costa - Best real win was Johnny Hendrix, was coming off of a war with Yoel Romero, Izzy had an 8 inch reach advantage

vs Whittaker - Pretty small for a middle weight, was coming off of two wars with Yoel Romero, Izzy had a 7 inch reach advantage

vs Derek Brunson - Journeyman level fighter that was coming off of a KO loss before the fight

vs Rob Wilkinson - Journeyman level fighter that was coming off of a KO loss before the fight and was cut after he lost to Izzy

In his fights against Silva, Romero, and Vettori, 3 middle weights that he didn't have a significant size advantage over he was reluctant to exchange and they all went the distance. In those fights he didn't really land significant head strikes either, against Silva he landed 27/79 (34%) of his head strikes, against Romero he landed 17/81 (17%) of his head strikes, and against Vettori he landed 31/92 (33%) of his head strikes. 

In his pre fight interviews Izzy has hinted at wanting to look for a submission. But Izzy is a purple belt in BJJ and has 0 takedowns in his 9 UFC fights. Jan has only been taken down 3 times in his last 9 bouts, is a high level BJJ black belt that has won major grappling tournaments, and actually has more submission finishes than KO's in his UFC career. 

Jan has KO'd 3 of his last 4 opponents and 2 of those KO's (Reyes/Anderson) were by left hook. In Izzy's last professional kick boxing fight he was KO'd stiff by a left hook, so badly that he needed an oxygen machine after the fight.
