Here are a pair of parlays for UFC 191: Lightweight bout: Paul Felder (-440) vs Ross Pearson (+350) Gabe’s Thoughts: Felder may seem like the younger prospect, but at 31 years of age, he is actually a year older than Pearson. He seems younger became he is new to the UFC and has not been competing nearly as long as Pearson, and certainly does not have nearly as much wear and tear as the Brit. Despite being the older fighter, I think Felder is on his way up, while Pearson is on a decline, as is his chin. I expect this fight to play out on the feet, where Pearson is technically the superior striker, but I think Felder’s forward pressure and power will be too much for him. I see Felder stopping Pearson within the first couple of rounds, but should this fight hit the judges’ scorecards for a decision, I think he will have done enough to take the nod there as well. Gabe’s Call: Felder by T/KO (punches, 1:59 round 1) Featherweight bout: Clay Collard (-135) vs Tiago Trator (+115) Gabe’s Thoughts: “Cassius” is the superior striker heading into this contest and I think he will have success in keeping this fight on the feet for the majority of three rounds, where he will outpoint the Brazilian for a unanimous decision win on the judges’ scorecards, ultimately bouncing back into the win column following a recent unanimous decision defeat to Gabriel Benitez. I don’t think Trator is as good as Benitez, so I am not expecting a similar outcome. I think what this fight will come down to is Collard’s takedown defense, and I think it will be good enough this Saturday night. Gabe’s Call: Collard by Unanimous Decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) Gabe’s Recommended Parlays: 1) Felder (-440) with Collard (-135) at +114 for 3.5u to win 4u and 2) Felder/Pearson Under 1.5 rounds (+145) with Collard/Trator Over 2.5 rounds (-140) at +320 for 1u to win 3.2u
