UFC 276: Adesanya vs Cannonier (RESULTS)
Winning Bets
Ian Garry / Sean O’Malley / Alex Pereira parlay (+2.37 units)
Ian Garry got the job done in the 1st leg of the parlay. His striking was too crisp and his speed was too much for Gabe Green to handle.
Unfortunately the O’Malley vs Munhoz fight was called a no contest due to an accidental eye poke. O’Malley seemed to be in control of the fight at the time it was called.
Alex Pereira looked the part of the next challenger for the middleweight title with his destruction of Sean Strickland. Strickland fought the worst game plan ever and paid for it.
Alex Pereira (+2.20 units)
As mentioned earlier Pereira couldn’t have been more impressive in his title fight eliminator. The moment wasn’t too big for him and he had a statement victory with so much on the line.
Losing Bets
Max Holloway (-3 units)
Volkanovski completely outclassed and dominated Holloway in a way that was unexpected to us. His speed and accuracy was incredible. We fell into the trap of getting what we felt was extreme value on Holloway based on his underdog odds. The truth of the matter is Volkanovski turned out to be the value side when all was said and done.
UFC Fight Night: Dos Anjos vs Fiziev (PLAYS)
Antonina Shevchenko / Jared Vanderaa / Said Nurmagomedov parlay +165 (1 unit) Bet was placed on 7/9/22.
Shevchenko is by far the better striker in her matchup against Casey. She also has a decent ground game for being primarily a striker. It appears Casey’s lone path to victory is by submission but that appears to be a long shot.
Vanderaa is fighting for his job against Sherman. And Sherman is one of the worst heavyweights on the roster. We expect Vanderaa to dominate and possibly finish Sherman along the way.
Nurmagomedov is too young, fast, and explosive for Silva De Andrade. Nurmagomedov has started fast in his recent fights while Silva De Andrade was hurt early in his last fight. We wouldn’t be surprised to see Nurmagomedov finish him early in this spot.
Jared Vanderaa ITD / Said Nurmagomedov ITD parlay +318 (1 unit) Bet was placed on 7/9/22.
We like Vanderaa and Nurmagomedov so much that we decided to put them in a separate parlay. This parlay however is an inside the distance parlay.
Vanderaa with his volume is live to hurt Sherman on the feet. If the fight gets to the ground Sherman is a known quitter and Vanderaa is capable to finish him by submission or ground and pound.
Nurmagomedov is the superior fighter against Silva De Andrade. He has elite striking and a underrated submission game. We feel it’ll only be a matter of time before he hurts Silva De Andrade and proceeds to finish him.
Said Nurmagomedov wins in round 1 +260 (1 unit) Bet was placed on 7/9/22.
Like we pointed out earlier Nurmagomedov is the superior fighter in this matchup. He starts off fast and Silva De Andrade was an inch away from being stopped in the 1st round of his last fight. We’ll take a shot on Nurmagomedov getting the quick finish.
Said Nurmagomedov & Douglas Silva De Andrade / Jared Vanderaa & Chase Sherman / Jamie Mullarkey & Michael Johnson FDGTD parlay +242 (1 unit) Bet was placed on 7/9/22.
We already have bets on Nurmagomedov and Vanderaa winning inside the distance so we naturally like those fights to end inside the distance. We also like the Mullarkey & Johnson fight to end inside the distance.
Mullarkey presses a hard pace and is there to be hit along the way. He’s either going to wear out Johnson along the way or get caught be Johnson in our opinion. Either way the ingredients are there for the fight to end inside the distance.
