UFC Fight Night Parlay: Tail This Expert's +322 UFC Fight Night Parlay
UFC Fight Night: Pavlovich vs. Blaydes is not the best fight night card we have seen this year, but there are still some good betting spots, including a nice three-leg parlay with some of my favorite picks on the card. Lock these three in for some great value, and let's have some fun watching some fights on Saturday night!
UFC Fight Night Parlay
Leg One: Bobby Green by Decision
Jared Gordon is simply outmatched in this fight. Bobby "King" Green is one of the more calculated strikers at lightweight, and he also has seriously underrated grappling that has cashed him eight submission wins in his career. If this fight stays on the feet, Green will outpoint and outwork Gordon and win exchanges. If it ends up on the ground, I expect Green will be in control and win minutes of control time. No matter where the fight goes, I don't see where Gordon beats Green. Sure, Gordon has a puncher's chance here, but his power has not traveled to the UFC well, and he only has one knockout in 12 UFC fights. Also, Green's chin is pretty good, outside of a few stoppage losses to the best in the lightweight division. Green has now lost two fights in a row, and I do not see him losing three in a row, especially considering this is a step down in competition. "King" gets back on track here.
Leg Two: Tafa/Usman Doesn't Start Round 3
Junior Tafa is the younger brother of UFC fighter Justin Tafa, and just like his older brother, Junior loves to swing. In his short MMA career, he is 4-0 with four knockouts, three of which came in the first round. Junior fights a lot like Justin, which means this fight will be over quickly.
Mohammed Usman is an ex-NCAA division one football player who played defensive end at Arizona. Usman converted that athleticism to an MMA career, where he is 8-2 (10-2, including his Ultimate Fighter fights). Usman made an appearance on The Ultimate Fighter, where he beat Mitchel Stipe and Eduardo Perez, both by decision, but Usman also loves to swing, and he has a lot of power. Usman won his UFC debut early in the second round against Zac Pauga, showing off his power. Both these men love to swing and will sacrifice defense to land their own offense. This fight likely won't enter the second round, but I'm covering myself with an extra round here. Tafa may gas if he doesn't end it early.
Leg Three: Pavlovich/Blaydes Doesn't Start Round 3
Speaking of heavyweights who love to swing, here is Sergei Pavlovich, who has five straight fights, all by first-round knockout. The man is a machine, and he will not be slowed down by anyone unless he goes unconscious, which did happen in his UFC debut against Alistair Overeem. If this fight stays standing, Pavlovich will not need long to put Blaydes on the canvas. Conversely, if Blaydes does get this fight to the ground, Pavlovich will be a fish out of the water, and Blaydes has devastating ground and pound that can end Pavlovich as well. Either way, both fighters have the tools to finish this fight, and I do not think this fight will enter the third round. Either Pavlovich stuffs Balydes' takedown attempts and starches him with an overhand right, or Blaydes takes Pavlovich down and finished him with elbows from mount.
