Five crazy prop bets is a column featured on MMAOddsbreaker.com after every major MMA event that highlights the biggest underdog prop bets to cash out from that card. Here’s five crazy UFC Fight Night 74 prop bets that cashed big based on the closing odds at Several Bookmakers. 1) Patrick Cote defeats Josh Burkman in round 3 (+1500) This result is surprising because Burkman had never been knocked out once in his 40 fight career. That could be the sign of age or him taking too many shots to the head. 2) Francisco Trinaldo wins by TKO/Knockout (+1305) Laprise was the far more technical striker in the cage but Francicso managed to put out his lights in the very first round. Laprise had never lost before, while Trainaldo is older but still has powerful hands. 3) Max Holloway vs Charles Oliveira won’t start round 2 at (+230) Holloway was controlling the range and when Oliveira shot in for a takedown that he was stuffed and suffered an extremely rare tear in his esophagus. After this contest Holloway way be next in line for a shot at the winner of Jose Aldo vs Conor McGregor. 4) Nikita Krylov wins by submission (+545) Most people, myself included, thought de Lima would run right through Krylov, but he managed to lock in a choke and leave de Lima unconscious. Krylov to win in round 1 was +250. 5) Frankie Perez wins by knockout (+525) This is a high number considering Stout was coming off of two straight knockout losses, and Stout may be on the verge of getting cut. Stout used to have a chin made of iron but it’s just not the case anymore.
