If interested in wagering on this parlay, or any bouts for this fight card, all betting lines are currently made available at Several Bookmakers. Here is my parlay: Women’s Featherweight bout: Julia Budd (-495) vs Arlene Blencowe (+350) Gabe’s Thoughts: Blencowe is game but I think she is outmatched here in this contest. I see Budd taking her to the mat and getting the better of her there. I could see Blencowe surviving all three rounds, but I like Budd’s chances of ending this fight via ground and pound TKO or submission. I think 15 minutes is plenty of time to get the job done, but Blencowe is tough so I would not be surprised to see her go the full distance with Budd. Gabe’s Call: Budd by TKO (punches, 3:34 round 2) Heavyweight bout: Dan Charles (-160) vs Virgin Zwicker (+140) Gabe’s Thoughts: In short, I think Charles is the superior fighter of the two heading into this contest. I see more routes to victory for him and think he should be a 2-to-1 betting favorite heading into this contest, so I like him at his current offering price of -160. Gabe’s Call: Charles by Unanimous Decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) Gabe’s Recommended Parlay: Budd (-495) and Charles (-160) at -105 for 2.1u to win 2u
