My DraftKings Picks
Chad Laprise (-600) vs.(+450) Brian Camozzi
Wow look at those odds, ok we get it betting line, Chad is going to win. Will he get the finish. Probably. I can easily see Chad Laprise playing it safe and not push for the finish. Chad will be able defends Camozzi's takedown and will be the superior striker.
Thiago Santos (-145) vs. Gerald Meerschaert (+125)
Thiago will have the striking advantage in this fight. Power advantage, Yes that goes to Santos not arguing that point. However Santos has a serious weakness on the ground. I'm picking Meerscheart because he finishes fights and i like his chances of pulling off a submission. If you have to pick an underdog pick the underdog that has a clear advantage in one area and finishes.
Yoel Romero (-105) vs. Robert Whittaker (-115)
I don't get the betting line on this fight. I don't get why Yoel was even at +120 at one point. I don't even think this is a Pick'em fight. He has been an underdog in all of his fights in the UFC. Is it because he is 39 years old. If 39 years old means you are built like a Ninja Turtle than i can't wait to turn 39. So the MMA experts are giving Whittaker the striking advantage. Yes to enable that advantage you a fighter has to be standing. Yoel is Olympic Silver medalist in wrestling. He can take his opponents down at will but he doesn't because he doesn't need to. Yoel lulls his opponents to sleep with his slow rhythmic style. At that point where you think you have his timing. Bam he explodes and your own the canvas. This fight isn't a pick'em and its a most pick for your Draftkings Card.
Amanda Nunes (-110) vs. Valentina Shevchenko (-110)
I don't think people know how undersized Valetina is for the weight division. She should be fighting at 125, she doesn't cut any weight for this division. My point in this is is she can hang in here because she is an excellent striker and after watching her fight against Julianna Pena she is pure mixed martial artists. I was so impressed with her ability to take down Pena who was the superior grappler. She ended up submitting her which was even more surprising. Amanda Nunes is the champion and she won their first fight but both these fighters are different fighters from when they first fought. I gotta pick Shevchenko because in their first fight Shevchenko was able to outlast Nunes in the 3rd round and really put it on her. Nunes will be the bigger puncher in this fight and she does have KO power but Shevchenko's ability to gauge distance will help with evading her power. I just think Shevchenko is the superior fighter with a better gas tank. Shevnenko is another most pick for your Draftkings card. She signed up for 5 round fight so given the chance she can rack up a lot of points if she doesn't get the finish. But I don't see this fight going the distance.
Cody Stamann (-260) vs. Terrion Ware (+220)
So the first two fights on this card were added last week. So I'm picking the guy with the better record. That's the breakdown.
Fabricio Werdum (+105) vs. Alistair Overeem (-125)
I get the odds on this one. Allistair Overeem won the last fight between these two fighters.
there was a lot of butt scouting with Fabricio not wanting to engage much in the striking but that's
not the case anymore. Fabricio stands with everyone now. Also Allistair Overeem doesn't have
a chin anymore. So with Fabricio being comptent striker and having the obvious ground game
advantage I gotta go with Fabricio. Since the striker will spend the majority of the fight
running around looking for angles because he can't take a punch anymore
