Five Props 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 are five UFC 238 bets that cashed big based on the closing odds from across various sportsbooks.
1) Darren Stewart by Decision (+750)
Darren Stewart has big power, but his weakness had been conditioning beyond the opening round. In this bout, he faced a tentative opponent which allowed him not to expend the energy he normally does. This was a great opportunity for decision backers and paid handsomely at +750
2) Henry Cejudo by Knockout (+590)
In the night’s main event, Henry Cejudo recovered from a difficult round one to finish Marlon Moraes on the mat with ground and pound to become a two-division champion. Moraes by knockout was the second biggest prop winner on the card at +590
3) Eddie Wineland by Knockout (+421)
In one of the most entertaining fights on the card, Eddie Wineland was aggressive from the start and it was only a matter of when he would put Grigory Popov away. Wineland was able to do so in the second round in what in hindsight was a very generous +421
4) Blagoy Ivanov by Decision (+333)
In a fight that was either going to end very quickly or go the full 15 minutes, Blagoy Ivanov and Tai Tuivasa went toe to toe to the final bell. Ivanov landed the cleaner punches to earn a decision victory to much rejoice from his betting backers
5) Calvin Kattar by Knockout (+331)
A great performance by Calvin Kattar was finished off a beautiful combination that sent long time featherweight contender Ricardo Lamas crumbling to the canvas in the later portions of the opening round. Kattar by knockout paid +331
A $100 parlay on these five props would have netted a stunning $556,926
