My Fights to AVOID betting Here are my prop plays…
Doo Ho Choi (-155) vs. Jeremy Stephens (+135)
Choi in Round One (+450) .5u to win 2.25u
Choi by Decision (+435) .45u to win 1.95u
I think Choi winning by early finish is the most likely outcome to this main event contest scheduled for five rounds, but I could also see him winning at least three out of five rounds to take a decision on the judges’ scorecards, as well.
Matt Frevola (-245) vs. Marco Polo Reyes (+205)
Frevola by Submission (+500) 1u to win 5u
Frevola -3.5 (-165) 4.95u to win 3u
I like Frevola’s chances of defeating Reyes by submission here. I think it is the most likely outcome to this contest, so I think that line holds tremendous value at +500, considering Frevola is -245 on the moneyline. I also really like the -3.5 prop at -165, in case Reyes’ submission defense holds up for three rounds.
Irene Aldana (-155) vs. Talita Bernardo (+135)
Aldana by T/KO (+444) .5u to win 2.22u
Aldana -3.5 (+150) 1u to win 1.5u
Contrary to the line movement, I think this is Aldana’s fight to lose and I favor her to win it by T/KO or 30-27 unanimous decision.
JJ Aldrich (-110) vs. Danielle Taylor (-110)
Aldrich -3.5 (+205) .1u to win 2.05u
In short, I think Aldrich will outstrike Taylor in every round and win a 30-27 unanimous decision based on volume.
Jessica Eye (-115) vs. Kalindra Faria (-105)
Eye by Submission (+865) .55u to win 4.75u
Eye Inside the Distance (+394) .5u to win 1.97u
Simply put, I think there is a decent chance that Eye finishes this fight by T/KO or submission, so I see value.
