Neil Magny vs. Carlos Prates

Carlos “The Nightmare” Prates is an astronomical -575 favorite against Neil Magny. Perhaps rightfully so. The rising prospect is a finishing machine. To date, Prates is riding a 10-fight knockout winning streak. He stopped his four UFC opponents in less than 10 minutes. Plus, Prates hasn’t even seen a third round in the UFC yet.

Meanwhile, Neil Magny is 37 years old veteran. Magny is returning from a ferocious elbow to ground and pound knockout, which he suffered two months ago. Seems like everything is aligned for Carlos Prates to capitalize on his first headline appearance.

The bet is Carlos Prates to win by KO/TKO. 25 minutes is too much time for Prates to find the knockout.

Bet: Carlos Prates

Gerald Meerschaert vs. Reinier de Ridder

UFC veteran Gerald Meerschaert is a +220 underdog against ONE Championship two division champion, Reinier de Ridder.

De Ridder (17-2) is the former ONE middleweight and light heavyweight champion. In his UFC debut, he is a -280 favorite. De Ridder is most known for his grappling. He is a highly credentialed Brazilian jiu-jitsu blackbelt. Perhaps most notably, De Ridder called out, fought, and tied Andre Galvao in jiu-jitsu. Galvao is a multiple time world champion in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu & ADCC champion.

We are in store for a high level MMA grappling match between GM3 and RDR. However, aside from grappling, de Ridder holds a clear striking advantage. Giving him the tools to finish this fight by any means necessary.

Meerschaert is towards the tail end of his illustrious MMA career. The bet here would be to play Reinier de Ridder to win inside the distance.
