Victor Petrino VS Anton Turkalj Under 1.5 Rounds (+125)

Kicking off the main card of action with a banger between two proven finishers, as Vitctor “Icao” Petrino and Anton “The Pleasure Man” Turkalj face off in the opening clash of the night. Both fighters have collected multiple first-round finishes over the course of their professional careers, meaning this fight may not take long to conclude.

Pitrino has been on a tear as of late, cleaning house with five straight finishes by knockout. Looking to make a statement in his UFC debut, look for him to push the pace from the opening bell as he looks to hand Turkalj his second straight defeat.

Looking to avoid such an event, Turkalj is a scary force inside the octagon in his own right. Aside from his lone professional loss coming in his UFC debut against #13-ranked heavyweight Jailton Almeida, the Swedish fighter has racked up five first-round finishes in his career.

Don’t expect to see this bout extend into the second, bet the Under on the total rounds of this bout, as Petrino and Turkalj go to war and settle business within the opening round.

Said Nurmagomedov to Win by Submission (+450)

If you ever see last name ending in “medov” on a mixed martial arts card, they are almost always a great bet. This stands true in this upcoming bout as Said Nurmagomedov is positioned well to pick up a massive win against skilled-striker, Johnathan “Dragon” Martinez.

Both of these combatants possess world-class skill and may even be good enough to enter the top-15 rankings in their weight class in the future, but with the insane depth of the bantamweight division, both men are potentially one win away from cracking into the exclusive group.

While both fighters have stellar skillsets, look for Nurmagomedov to use his fantastic wrestling skills to bring the fight to the ground, scoring the win by submission. Martinez is as dangerous on the feet as they come, but his ground game is still a work in progress. Having never been submitted in his professional MMA career, look for Nurmagomedov to become only the second fighter to ever finish Martinez.

With sensational value attached to this prop bet, hammer Nurmagomedov to win by submission and watch as the Russian grappler picks up his fourth straight victory in this bout.

Nikita Krylov to Win in Round 1 (+165)

In a rescheduled bout from two weeks ago, this matchup pits two of the most dangerous 205ers against one another as #6 Nikita “The Miner” Krylov takes on #8 Ryan “Superman” Spann. With both men looking to vault themselves into title contention with a win tonight, look for both combatants to leave it all inside the octagon.

While both men have proven finishing ability, look for Krylov to make quick work of Spann, finishing the fight within the first round. Neither of these men are strangers to quick finishes, both fighters holding a combined nine first round wins between them. While it is sure to be an electrifying matchup, look for the experience and savvy of Krylov to provide the winning edge against Spann in tonight’s main event.

Krylov holds knockout power in spades, able to put his opponents lights out in a matter of seconds when he connects flush. We have seen Spann struggle against opponents possessing such power, with both his losses to Anthony Smith and Johnny Walker coming as a result of Spann’s inability to avoid taking damage from his opponents.

With a stupendous all-around ability and no shortage of finishing skills in his arsenal, look for Krylov to put an exclamation point on this main event, finishing Spann within the first round. Watch as he picks up his third-straight victory while simultaneously landing you a winning wager to end off a spectacular night of UFC action.

Alexander Volkov Moneyline (+130)

In the co-main event of the evening we’ve got another big-bodied battle between two top 15 ranked heavyweights as Alexander “Drago” Volkov looks to keep his top 10 spot against surging Romanian brawler, Alexandr “King Kong” Romanov.

While Romanov has steamrolled through most of his competition in the UFC, look for him to pick up his second straight loss against the proven veteran, Volkov.

Just like in his last bout against Marcin Tybura, look for Volkov to outclass the brute force of Romanov with elite footwork, speed, and finesse on the feet in order to pick up the victory. Volkov is amazing at utilizing his sensation reach to keep his opponents at bay, landing smooth strikes as they struggle to close the distance.

You can never fully count out the strength and grappling ability of Romanov, but Volkov can easily go toe-to-toe with him, having picked up impressive wins against notable finishers over the course of his career. Entering into this matchup as the underdog, take Volkov on the moneyline and pick up a juicy win with this plus-money straight up pick.

Petr Yan to Win by KO/TKO/DQ (+240)

He may be ranked as the #2 Bantanweight in the UFC, but many still view Petr “No Mercy” Yan as the top fighter at 135lbs. Facing Merab “The Machine” Dvalishvili in the main event of the card, look for Yan to put his lights out with his outstanding striking ability.

Having finished several legends of the sport by way of knockout including Jose Aldo and Urijah Hall, look for Yan to put his heavy hands to work as he connects frequently with the Georgian contender, Dvalishvili. Yan possesses virtually every advantage in this fight, able to stuff the takedown attempts of his opponent, and will easily get the best of any standup exchanges.

We have already seen Dvalishivili’s chin tested in the past, narrowly escaping a knockout loss against Marlon Moraes. Don’t look for him to fight through adversity the same way if Yan rocks him, look for No Mercy to instead finish the job and become the first to break the Machine.

Unlikely to bring this fight to the ground on his accord, look for Yan to spark Dvalishvili on the feet, putting an end to his opponents undefeated streak within the UFC, and asserting himself as the top dog in the division with a statement win in the main event of the night.

Bet on Yan to win the fight by KO, TKO, or DQ and cap off a wonderful Fight Night with a humongous win.
