UFC Vegas 55 – Bets

Omar Morales ML -145 (59.18%) – 2u

I like this value. Morales has proven to be UFC caliber. And Medic feels like the ultimate can crusher.

Medic started his UFC career looking fantastic. A 1st round KO on the DWCS and a 1st round KO in his UFC debut. But he looked completely out of place in the Octagon against Jalin Turner. Medic will look like a world beater against fighters that do not have an answer for his aggressive striking, so he can stack up KOs. Hence, the ultimate can crusher label.

Morales is not as good, or as big as Jalin Turner. Morales is moving up from 145, but I do not think he will be a can for Medic to crush. And as the fight goes I am betting Morales proves himself to be the far more polished fighter.

Chidi Njokuani ITD +100 (50.00%) – 2u

Ok – I am going to be much more selective about the props I play going forward. But I like Chidi a lot in this one.

Dusko has had success in his career as a striker, but Chidi will be far more polished on the feet. Dusko’s UFC/DWCS wins have come from his physicality and wearing his opponents down. But he is an undersized MW, and Chidi will be the one with the physiciality advantage. Dusko’s path to victory will be to put Chidi on his back, but he will be much harder to take then Duskos other UFC wins.

These guys will be throwing, and anything can happen in a cage fight. Dusko could end up on top and steal two rounds, but I feel good about Chidi establishing his striking game and continuing his finishing streak in a favourable matchup.

Santiago Ponzinibbio ML +115 (46.51%) – 2u

I am playing the value here. I believe Michel Pereira to be one of the more overrated guys in the division. He will have a hard time beating Santiago in a stand up point fight.

Santiago is a ways away from his days as a contender, but he has been a dangerous fighter since his return. Happy to back Santiago at this price.

Almeida – Njokuani PARLAY -153 (60.47%) – 6u

First chain of the parlay! I am a big Chidi backer. And Almeida should prove to be the rightful favourite in this one. Porter has no UFC KOs, and has attempted 20 takedowns in his UFC career, which is not what you want to do against a guy like Jailton.

Almeida – Njokuani – Holmes – Park PARLAY +267 (27.25%) – 2.5u

Adding in Holmes and Park. Holmes is decent, but his opponent has been away for a long time, is way undersized and has never beat anyone close to UFC caliber.

And I like Parks ability to neutralize his opponents against a guy like Andres.

Almeida – Njokuani – Holmes – Park – Morales – Ponzinibbio PARLAY +1251 (7.40%) – 1.5u

Adding in two of my favourites who I already have ML bets on.

Almeida – Njokuani – Holmes – Park – Morales – Ponzinibbio – Martinez – Holm PARLAY +2614 (3.68%) – 1u

Final leg! I do like Martinez and Holm, but I don’t love them at these prices.

Holmes – Park PARLAY +121 (45.25%) – 3u

Small side chain!

Holmes – Park – Martinez – Holm PARLAY +345 (20.37%) – 1u

Last leg of the hedge parlay!

Martinez DEC – Holmes ITD – Almeida ITD – Park DEC – Njokuani ITD – Ponzinibbio DEC PARLAY +6678 (1.48%) – .1u

The long shot this week!
Good luck!!
