UFC Fight Night 82 Date: February 6, 2016 Arena: MGM Grand Garden Arena City: Las Vegas, NV The Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) is back in Las Vegas for UFC Fight Night 82: Hendricks vs Thompson with 12-scheduled bouts. Main card action will get underway at 10pm ET on FOX Sports 1, with preliminary action preceding it on the same channel at 8pm ET and a pair of bouts on Fight Pass prior to that at 7pm ET. 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: Welterweight bout: Mickey Gall (-505) vs Mike Jackson (+335) Gabe’s Thoughts: I like Mickey Gall. He’s clearly very raw, but he could have a future in the UFC. I think this is a squash match for him, and in short, I expect him to make quick work of Jackson, cementing himself as CM Punk’s opponent, likely for UFC 199 in June. Gabe’s Call: Gall by Submission (rear naked choke, 3:23 round 1) Featherweight bout: Alex White (-115) vs Artem Lobov (-125) Gabe’s Thoughts: I expect this 145-pound battle to play out on the feet, where I think Lobov will connect and put White away within the 15 scheduled minutes of action. If it hits the judges’ scorecards, I think Lobov has the better chances of picking up the nod. He has poor striking defense and plots forward with his hands down, but I think he will be landing the more effecting blows throughout this contest. If he fails to score the finish, I think the damage done will earn him the nod. I think the Ireland-based Russian should be a -170 betting favorite heading into this contest, so I like him at his current offering price of -125. Gabe’s Call: Lobov by T/KO (punches, 1:07 round 1) Gabe’s Recommended Parlay: Gall/Jackson Under 1.5 rounds (-165) and Lobov (-125) at +200 for 2u to win 4u U
