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: Women’s Bantamweight title bout: Miesha Tate (-250) vs Amanda Nunes (+210) Gabe’s Thoughts: I think this is Tate’s fight to lose. As long as she does not get finished early in this fight, I believe she will walk away with it in the later rounds. Worst case scenario, Nunes has improved cardio and survives to see the judges’ scorecards, but more than likely, I think Tate will take her into deep waters, take her back and finish her with patented Tate-Caraway rear naked choke. I would say Tate finishes the fight at the end of the second or mid-way into the third round, but because I am expecting at least some improved cardio from the Brazilian, I will say that she makes it to the championship rounds and gets put away either in the fourth or fifth. I think Nunes will have the advantage on the feet to start off the fight, but in round three, when she starts to slow down, I think Tate will start to take-over in the striking. Needless to say, the fighter formerly nicknamed “Takedown” will be enjoying a grappling advantage heading into her first UFC Women’s Bantamweight title defense, as well as an advantage in conditioning. Gabe’s Call: Tate by Submission (rear naked choke, 4:01 round 4) Heavyweight bout: Cain Velasquez (-275) vs Travis Browne (+235) Gabe’s Thoughts: In short, I think Velasquez pressures Browne against the cage, unloads a combination that buckles his knees and forces the referee to step in and halt the contest. Gabe’s Call: Velasquez by T/KO (punches, 2:06 round 1) Gabe’s Recommended Parlays: 1) Tate (-250) and Velasquez (-275) at -110 for 3.3u to win 3u and 2) Tate/Nunes Over 1.5 rounds (-235) and Velasquez/Browne Under 1.5 rounds (-115) at +166 for 2.15u to win 3.58u
