Here is my favorite UFC parlay picks for this card, with odds of +472 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Also, be sure to check out the rest of our UFC predictions for all of the Main Card fights.
Alex Pereira vs Jiri Prochazka – Over 1.5 Rounds (-160)
The Main Event at UFC 303 will see Alex Pereira take on Jiri Prochazka. This will be a fight in the UFC Light Heavyweight division and will also be for the UFC Light Heavyweight title.
Pereira is the small favorite to retain his UFC Light Heavyweight title, so instead we will be looking at a total rounds prop. Prochazka has seen all 5 of his UFC fights go over 1.5 total rounds, while Pereira has seen 4 of his last 5 UFC fights do the same. Because both fighters have seen the majority of their recent fights go at least multiple rounds, backing over 1.5 total rounds will be our first pick in our UFC parlay.
