      I feel embarrassed to have backed Hart with 75% of my total wagers for that night. I didn't discount Joe obviously but wish I put everything on that one bet and still lost. I knew this was one of those rare times to go with my heart and not head/favorite opinion. Just last time I did that with Commey I got stomped in 2 lol.

        There was indeed a moment three days ago when the pre-fight bullshìt talk by Hart and his cold stare almost bought my bet on him. Then I went to watch his physical behavior in the Ramirez fights, and I could spot the same defects that we all saw magnified last Saturday night. They're summarized in three words: waste of energy. Hart is an inefficient fighter. Then again, I thought Smith is powerful and a real light heavy, so I decided against Hart. But I was too greedy to bet on the KO at 7x, had I contented myself with just the Smith win at 4.5x it would have been a nice win just the same. Lesson learned.

        In the Lopez vs Commey fight I found useful combinations of knockout odds for both, so I bet the bulk on Lopez via KO and less money on Commey via KO in the first four rounds, which would have paid very good. When the dust was settled, I won a nice little sum, though I would have preferred Commey to win me more cash

          Yeah for that card I had 3way parlay of Conlan pts, Bud KO and Commey KO and tried to play the other side same way but with Lopez UD ******ly. Greed of parlays and props are always my downfall. Good success with Over/Under this weekend at least so might just start straight betting on those or parlaying them when I feel greedy or return is too low otherwise.

            No excuses... but here is my excuse! Hart is just a decent B- level fighter. I actually thought he would win this one though. Good fight, but neither of these guys are really going anywhere. Gatekeepers.

              Hart has the "hit and not get hit" strategy confused.

                  David Lemieux at 168lbs is about to find that out (he has already started against Bursak).
                  Hell, I don't even think the 168 division should even exist, but Hart did it to himself. He didn't grow out of the division, he was undisciplined between fights and putting on 20-25lbs between fights. Same with Zurdo. Actually, they were talking about how he ballooned up to around 200 when he decided to "test light heavyweight" and had issues with 175!

                    Damn!
                    Hart doesn't even look that "naturally" big to begin with.

                      exactly. he was looking pretty soft at the sides. I didn't see the weigh in, but he didn't look super solid IMO.
