Summary

After knocking out Kamaru Usman in one of the greatest comebacks in MMA history last year, welterweight champion Leon Edwards will put his newly won title on the line in a trilogy bout with Usman this Saturday at UFC 286, and so the No Bets Barred boys are back, and they've got a couple special guests in store. To kick things off this week, co-hosts Conner Burks and Jed Meshew are joined by Andrew Collins, the man who turned $1 into $400,000 at UFC 285 with a five-fight exacto-parlay, to talk about what some are calling the greatest bet in MMA history. Then the boys are joined by MMA On Point's Alex Ritchings, who is on the ground in London for this week's events, to talk about all things UFC 286. Topics this week include differing opinions on whether Leon Edwards can retain his title, fervent debate on Justin Gaethje's chances to rebound against Rafael Fiziev, unanimous agreement in Gunnar Nelson's prospects against Bryan Barberena, and of course, some more flyweight under discourse.

What is going on y'all? We are back. It is another edition of NoBets barred this time

0:25.5

for UFC 286. We are heading back to London in the O2 Arena, Leon Edwards vs. Camaro

0:32.4

Usman 3 for the Welter Wake title. A lot to get into there. Fantastic car. Before we

0:39.0

get into any of that, before we break down last week, before we jump to this week, we had

0:42.7

to bring on a special guest. I guess this will be the first interview in NoBets barred

0:47.9

history, Jed. It is our man Andrew Collins. You may have seen him on Twitter, AC The Hulk.

0:54.4

He is the man that hit, I guess some are considering it, the lotto ticket. It's the greatest

0:59.8

MMA bat I've ever seen. I actually, I'll go as far to say, yes, it is, it is the greatest

1:04.8

bat I've ever seen just to get you up to date. If you don't know exactly what we're talking

1:08.2

about, Andrew hit a $1 parlay and turned it into $399,472.71 and that's not the only

1:18.8

parlay. That's not the only parlay. He has a house on the night. He also hit another

1:23.8

parlay that turned $1 into $72,000. Let's bring him in. Andrew, first of all, congratulations

1:31.4

on the bat. I mean, how has it been in the, this was what, UFC 285. So in the last two

1:37.0

weeks, last week and a half, since it happened, I mean, how's life been for you guys? Appreciate

1:42.4

being on. It's been surreal, man. It's just kind of people hitting me up from left and

1:48.7

right. People at work kind of catching wind of it and texting and calling nonstop. And

1:53.8

it kind of came at a great time. I got six kids and kind of been in the process of looking

2:00.0

for a house and so it's definitely going to help out. I would hope so. I mean, you could

2:06.4

get yourself a fairly decent house for $1.00. It would turn into all right. So let's break

2:13.5

it down a little bit. So the bet itself was six legs plus 39,947,171, which just saying

2:22.3

that sounds fake. Like, I mean, that just sounds like fake odds. You went, Drieckus Duplassi

2:28.2

to win by KO round two, Cody Garbrent to win by decision, Bonickel to win by submission
