This is the final, full list for this Saturday’s UFC 282 event. LFG!
UFC 282 (13-21, +4.38 units in 2022):
Ankalaev + Pimblett ML Parlay (1.5 units to win 1.41 units)
Ankalov is made of the same insane makeup that Khabib and his proteges are made of and although I love Jan Blachowicz and his power is real, Ankalov’s wrestling ability and toughness will be too much for the Polish power puncher. Pimblett is growing in popularity for good reasons. The dude is insanely gifted and can win in so many different ways. He’s facing a better fighter in this event but it’ll take a true elite for Paddy the Baddy to experience his first loss, in my opinion.
Bryce Mitchell (+125), to win 1.25 units
Topuria/Mitchell under 2.5 rounds (+105), to win 1.05 units
I’ve been watching this dude on social media and he’s just a tough-ass country boy who’s trained differently, in the boondocks, since he was a kid. His opponent hasn’t lost a professional bout but he’s a little overconfident for my liking. Dude hasn’t faced an imposing fighter and I love that Mitchell will have a reach, height, and TD advantage. He also has an insane 75% significant strike percentage. I’m going country-boy-USA! PS – Mitchell is FIRED UP about this fight– I think he’ll go for the kill or be killed early.
Rozenstruik by TKO (-120), to win 1 unit
This one won’t last long and this is the most probable result.
Du Plessis wins by KO/TKO/DQ (+165), to win 1.65 units
Darren Till is beyond his prime, losing four out of his last five fights. And who knows if he even wants to be there– he’s vocalized how hard it’s been not being able to see his newborn baby. Du Plessis is younger, hungrier, and he’s won his last 5 bouts. He ended 4/5 of those wins early.
