Insight the Octagon comes at you on our new release day — a little later in the week and a little closer to fight night.
The extra day will allow more time to refine releases. Most readers of this column know that I usually don’t move on a fight until after the weigh-in process.
Two weeks ago, Leon Edwards added 3.1 units to our bankroll via the finish over champion Kamaru Usman. While I’ll gladly accept the profit, I must state that Edwards won the fight on a fluke. My handicap was for Edwards to slowly but surely take the steam away from Usman, but the fight went exactly the opposite of that prediction.
Sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good.
