If interested in wagering on this parlay, or any bouts for this fight card, all betting lines are currently made available at Several Bookmakerss. Here is my parlay: Women’s Strawweight bout: Heather Jo Clark (+210) vs Karolina Kowalkiewicz (-250) Gabe’s Thoughts: Kowalkiewicz has been making noise in the UFC’s women’s 115-pound division with a unanimous decision win over Randa Markos and now she prepares to take on another TUF veteran in Clark. I believe Kowalkiewicz is the superior striker heading into this contest and I expect her to find success in keeping the fight on the feet, where I see her outstriking Clark for three rounds of action en route to picking up a unanimous decision win on the judges’ scorecards. I see her getting past Clark in this fight and remaining undefeated as a professional mixed martal artist. Gabe’s Call: Kowalkiewicz by Unanimous Decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) Lightweight bout: Jon Tuck (+180) vs Nick Hein (-220) Gabe’s Thoughts: I think Hein is the superior fighter of the two, as well as the stronger fighter; both physically and mentally. I see the German fighter keeping this fight standing and outboxing Tuck for the majority of three rounds of action for a unanimous decision victory on the judges’ scorecards. I think Tuck’s best chance at getting his hand raised here is by caching Hein with a submission, like a guillotine or leg-lock, but I think the odds of that are slim. Though, if you are on Hein and feel like hedging, I think a stab on Tuck by Submission at +745 would be the way to go. Gabe’s Call: Hein by Unanimous Decision (29-28, 30-27, 20-27) Gabe’s Recommended Parlay: Kowalkiewicz (-250) and Hein (-220) at +103 for 2.75u to win 2.85u
