I asked Grok, Twitter/π's AI to predict the main event for UFC 320
|
I know it's not the best AI out there, but for fun, I thought I'd ask Grok, Twitter/ π's AI, to make a pick for this weekend's UFC 320 main event. It's not too different than the pick I made. I don't think any of us thinks it goes any differently than the last time. But that's the thing about combat sports. You never know... Here's what Grok came up with when I asked:
β Magomed Ankalaev by decision.The UFC's Draft Kings odds have Ankalaev as a -285 favorite at the time I'm writing this. Alex Pereira is +230. Now, if you remember what I wrote about the Canelo/Crawford match-up, and you happen to be a degenerate gambler, you'll want to pick plus money. Everyone does. If you've taken notes on Pereira, you know he wins by KO/TKO for most of his wins. He's a kickboxer after all, and of course, that would be how he wins coming into MMA. Everyone always has a "puncher's chance." So, what's the plus money on Pereira getting a KO or TKO? +320Again, that's according to the UFC's odds on their website; it's probably better elsewhere. I don't think it happens. I think we get a repeat of the same as last time. However, if you think he can, that's the bet I'd make. Remember: I'm not giving gambling advice, I'm not a professional gambler, but I do take notes on fighters and the fights I watch. If you want the PDF for doing the same, you can grab it here. Otherwise, if you're getting this because you grabbed the Notion template, you can use that too. More on the weekend ahead tomorrow! β‘Follow me on π: @Carbazelβ β π My books: Bow and Arrow Mysteries (my fiction writing) β π© Mixed Martial Answers on Substackβ β π Fight Night Card Companion: on Gumroadβ β π₯ My YouTube channel: The Blogboard Jungleβ β πΈ IG: @Carbeerzelβ β β β β β |
