The UFC fight card features 12 bouts in all — all at middleweight pounds or lighter, including two tournament finals for The Ultimate Fighter 31 reality show. So where should be looking to place your UFC bets. Let's be honest: Betting "unders" and "ends by finish" sure is a fun way to spend a night of cage-fighting. Who doesn't like watching a slick submission or big KO — and making a tidy profit off it?
However, betting "under 1. I feel like I'm playing with fire a bit in taking the under 1. Denis Tiuliulin — at chalky odds of , no less. But the more I come back to the matchup and visualize it playing out, the more the narrative seems to fit: Either Tiuliulin gets in there and finishes him early, or Rodrigues takes over and simply swallows him up, likely on the mat.
Even if Rodrigues initially ditches his massive grappling edge and stands and trades, it bodes well for our "under" play here. Both guys have power. That's another reason I love this play: Whether Rodrigues takes this to the mat or whether he plays with fire and keeps it standing, we've got a great chance of this one ending within 7.
Tiuliulin has been out of the second round just once in his past eight fights. Rodrigues hasn't seen the third round in three bouts — and when his fights do extend, it's not really against opponents like feast-or-famine Tiuliulin. I'll be on the edge of my seat and sweating every moment of this fight, especially early, but give me under 1.
Tiuliulin at odds, and take the bet down to The Pick: Gregory Rodrigues vs. Denis Tiuliulin under 1. While he's six years older and at a five-inch reach disadvantage, Pedro Munhoz has a path to apparent favoritism and a high likelihood of winning the opening round of his UFC bout with Marlon "Chito" Vera.
Vera typically starts slow and tends to give away the first round to his opponents as he makes his reads, looks for openings, and lets his pace build. While that style has proven well in five-round battles, Vera is highly susceptible to losing on the scorecards in three-round fights since he's typically rallying from behind and looking for a finish. And Vera may fail to adjust his pace to compensate for fewer rounds after becoming accustomed to minute fights.
While Chito's attritional style works well against many opponents, Munhoz is highly durable never finished in his career and has solid cardio, both of which play against Vera's best attributes. Ufc 292 parlay Unless Vera steps on the gas from the outset, he might fall behind — as he typically does — and eventually get outwrestled by a superior grappler. While Munhoz hasn't typically attempted takedowns with consistency 0.
He also hasn't had the opportunity to employ his offensive wrestling game, with which he can threaten submissions with his world-class jiu-jitsu skills. This scrap has Fight of the Year potential, not too dissimilar to Weili's championship bout against Joanna Jedrzejczyk in I implore anyone who has not seen that fight to watch it; it is my favorite fight of all time.
Weili is an incredible mixed martial artist and is comfortable in every facet of the sport. UFC is live from Boston on Saturday. The main card will be on PPV starting at 10 p. Sterling is the side here as a much better grappler and more durable fighter.
Sterling is a reliable, intelligent fighter who grapples when needed, stays safe in striking exchanges, and has unreal cardio. Weili has been in some absolute wars against the top of the division, but her knockout loss to Rose Namajunas should give at least some pause to bettors looking to add Weili to a parlay.
Kotona is mostly just a grappler who does very little damage when on top and his striking leaves much to be desired. Contact The Author Name required. Email required. Comment required. There was an error submitting your message. Published Aug.
