UFC Fight Night Best Bet - Alex Perez vs. Tatsuro Taira: Perez ML +170

Taira is great on the ground, but this is a major step up in competition for him. Perez should be able to have the cardio advantage and if he can keep the fight standing, he has major advantages. For a fighter making his first jump into the top 15, it is too steep of a price to pay on Taira.

UFC Fight Night Prediction - Nate Maness vs. Jimmy Flick: Maness Round 1 +100

Maness has the superior power and good enough wrestling defense to keep it standing. Flick isn’t someone who quits on himself, but his chin gives out on him in almost every fight, and I think Maness gets it done quickly on Saturday.

 

 

 

UFC Fight Night Parlay: Armfield ML & Saragih ML +100

Armfield has a clear striking advantage over Heistand, and if Katona struggled to outland him, I don’t think Brady is going to be able to. Saragih is taking on one of the worst fighters to ever fight in the UFC and as long as he can avoid the submission skills of Wilson, he should be able to KO him at some point in the fight.

UFC Fight Night Best Bet At Long Odds: Gabriella Fernandes By Decision +160

Fernandes is finally not having to deal with a wrestler so she should be able to out strike her opponent in this matchup. Judice is durable and should be able to survive the 15 minutes, so I’m taking Fernandes by decision for some extra value.
