New strat. Winning parlay and singles

I will go with a new strategy, after choosing most of the dogs and spreading for a 50-60% correct prediction chance to get a little bit of profit at the end of the week.
Now I decided to choose a few games and invest heavier on that to make a solid profit, almost all if not all weeks guaranteed money.
I go with Juliana Miller, Kamaru Usman and Mohammed Mokaev for a 3 unit profit on 3.5 unit investment. Total return 6.5 units.
Will go 1 unit on Dolidze for a 2 unit profit returning 3 units.
Will go 4 units if I don't invest on Rafael Fizief. I believe he had a great chance of winning too but Justin Gaethje could surprise...

Coming back to the Tapology forums after a year is like finally leaving a toxic relationship and moving on with your life, and then one day decide to check up on your ex and realize she’s an illiterate crack-skank with zero furniture in her house cause she keeps losing sports bets

Marvin Vettori, DEC
As much as Dolidze has been impressive as of late, I have a hard time seeing him crack Vettori. I’m willing to believe Vettori’s skull is made of cinder blocks.

Last week when mezzor got the main event right and I was wrong, I won't lie, i paused...i wondered what kind of trick the universe was playing, had I lost it? Had mezzor been misunderstood all along?

Then I saw his Veronica pick and realised he is simply a broken clock that is correct twice a day and this week we will be back to business as usual

Gunnar Nelson vs. Bryan Barberena
Bryan Barberena, KO/TKO, R2
Barberena is just gonna make it an even bigger dogfight than anticipated, plus I feel as if the sport itself has passed Gunnar Nelson in some sort of way.

Hadley VS. Gordon

Predictions: 8 of 15 Winners, 3 Perfect, 530 Points   |   Tied for 2694th

Any time I see Hadley it reminds me of his UFC debut where he looked like absolute garbage. 

Am I the only person who sees Gordon pulling off an upset? Gordon held up pretty decent against Mokaev. Feel like it's gonna be a lot harder for Hadley to pull off a sub

Hadley is alot better than his first fight, watch his fights before he got to the UFC, Nascimento is just really good. Gordon is decent but he's 2-3 in the UFC 1 win coming by injury and the other Vs **** figgy, before the UFC Hadley fought alot better comp

I've watched Hadley since he came onto DWCS. I definitely think he is talented but his debut reminded me why I have always been sketched out by the big cage warrior prospects

I get Gordon isn't the best but his losses in the UFC are to some stellar fighters. 

My pick is Hadley winning but I'm not gonna count Gordon out. Gordon has a history of being chinny but I don't see Hadley packing heat to put his lights out. Gordons been subbed twice but it was by two of the best wrestlers in his division. I'm having trouble seeing Hadley being able to get a finish here. And if he can't get a finish what are the odds he out points him if he can't land take downs? I may be wrong but I think the fight lines should be closer than they are.

You never know but I have a hard time believing a fighter that got brutalized by Bea Malecki has any chance against Miller the Iller.
