Dan Ige vs. Patricio Pitbull

Dan Ige is a -170 favorite against Patricio Pitbull, a +142 underdog.

Patricio Pitbull’s UFC debut at UFC 314 was highly disappointing. Pitbull looked like a shell of himself. Granted, it was one fight, but he is 38 years old and might have made the jump to the UFC too late.

Dan Ige is one of the most reliable and consistent fighters on the roster. The opportunity to bet on him at -170 is phenomenal value. Completely ignore skill or style. From the limited data we have on Pitbull, there’s no logical way to justify betting on him.

Bet: Dan Ige

Ryan Spann vs. Lukasz Brzeski

Ryan Spann is a -218 favorite over Lukasz Brzeski, a +180 underdog.

Lukasz Brzeski vs Ryan Spann is a match to see who gets knocked out first. You’re essentially flipping a coin if you choose to bet on this fight straight up. The best move would be to take, the fight does not start round 3, or the fight does not go the distance.

Under 1.5 rounds is -150, which seems like promising value. However, in terms of making money and keeping everything as “safe” as possible, betting on the fight does not go the distance. As of right now, we have no idea what that line will be, but hammer it anyway.
