“Pavlovich is a dangerous guy. I’ve always said this - I want to win, but I can lose too.
If I lose, I’m not going to stay at heavyweight. Everyone knows I’m lighter than all those heavyweights. So I’m not going to keep trying to match their strength when I could do something else and be better off.”

UFC 333 Tapology vs Betting Odds Comparison
Considering UFC 333 is the most competitive card of the year, I compiled the Tapology user picks and compared them to the current odds as of 10/22.
Thought the results were pretty interesting:
38 year old Volk getting picked near 80% against a better fighter than TKZ/Ortega/Yair/Lopes despite the line suggesting it's a coin flip. Volkov at 86% when he seems visibly slower than to me than he was even when he fought Pavlovich 2.5 years ago and has implied winning probability of 53.5% according to the books. Yan going from 10% picked against Dvalishvili last time to 72%, in the trilogy.
Keita, Temirov and Rowston are underdogs that are picked to win, Murzakanov, Santos, Vagaev and Dawson should be substantially bigger favorites than they currently are.
Anything in particular stand out to you?
