UFC 290 betting: Robert Whittaker the play to slow Dricus du Plessis' momentum
He's since June 28, , losing only to middleweight champion Israel Adesanya in that span. That's a career's worth of significant victories, and he's still fighting as if he's in his prime. But Whittaker is a low-key guy who doesn't hype himself and often gets overlooked as a result. Du Plessis is overall and in the UFC. Now, he's taking the huge step up to fight Whittaker.
Whittaker is a solid favorite at BetMGM over du Plessis, who hopes to parlay a win over Whittaker into a title shot against Adesanya. Whittaker, though, is no gatekeeper. He remains at the top of his game and is vastly more well-rounded than du Plessis. Du Plessis is an aggressive, attacking fighter and there's a chance that he could catch Whittaker with something and finish him.
Whittaker rarely makes mistakes, has a good enough chin to bail him out if he does and has the ring IQ that few in the sport own. I'm going to lay the and play Whittaker to win. I suspect he'll be beating du Plessis by countering him expertly and taking advantage of his mistakes. Alexander Volkanovski will defend the featherweight championship in the main event Saturday against interim champ Yair Rodriguez and is a solid favorite to win and keep his belt.
Rodriguez has great strikes that come from all angles. He's quick and hits hard and is a great combination puncher. Volkanovski's boxing has steadily improved — and after going 15 rounds in three wins over the legendary Max Holloway, how could it not. Rodriguez's kicks are next level, though, and he's going to likely throw a lot to try to take the champion's legs from him. If Rodriguez is able to take advantage of the kicks, that throws the tide of the fight significantly in his favor.
The line on this is far too wide, in my opinion, and I expect Volkanovski to come out as a favorite or perhaps Whittaker is still at, or near, the top of his game. Robert whittaker vs du plessis odds Whittaker is used to it as he has gone the distance in each of his past 5 fights, winning 4 by unanimous decision. Du Plessis is going to make him work, as he is the better grappler. If he can get it to the canvas early, he has a chance to make this one go long into the night.
