Here are my prop plays: Francis Ngannou (-485) vs Anthony Hamilton (+385) Ngannou in Round One (-105) 2.1u to win 2u I think this is the most likely outcome to this heavyweight co-main event showdown. I believe the prop is worth a play at -150, considering Ngannou is currently a massive -485 betting favorite on the moneyline. Corey Anderson (-420) vs Sean O’Connell (+335) Anderson by Decision (+145) 2u to win 2.9u I see Anderson employing his superior wrestling to grind out a unanimous decision win over O’Connell in this light heavyweight tilt on the evening’s main card. I see a lot of value in this prop at +145, considering Anderson is currently a heavy -420 betting favorite on the moneyline. Randy Brown (-155) vs Brian Camozzi (+135) Camozzi Inside the Distance (+305) 2u to win 6.1u Simply put, I favor Camozzi in this match-up and I think he gets the job done inside the distance. Trevor Smith (+180) vs Andrew Sanchez (-220) Smith by Decision (+415) 2u to win 8.3u I think this is the most likely outcome to this middleweight contest and I see Smith coming through as an underdog winning on the scorecards in impressive fashion for the third straight fight. Keith Berish (+205) vs Ryan Janes (-245) Berish by Decision (+750) 2u to win 15u This is a fight I planned to avoid betting, and will do so for the most part, however I can’t ignore the big value you’re getting here, as I think this is a realistic outcome to this light heavyweight match-up.
