Here is our favorite 4-fight parlay for this card, with odds of +613 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Be sure to check out the rest of our UFC Fight Night 213 predictions for the full 11-fight slate.
Joshua Weems vs Christian Rodriguez – Fight to go the Distance – No (-175)
Christian Rodriguez is one of the biggest favorites on this card, so backing his money line does not look worth it. He has seen 6 of his 8 fights end inside the distance, while Joshua Weems has seen 11 of his 13 fights do the same. For that reason, backing this fight to end inside the distance will be the play.
Joseph Holmes vs Junyong Park – Fight to go the Distance – No (-110)
Junyong Park is a huge favorite in this fight, but Joseph Holmes’ finishing ability gives him a chance. Holmes has seen 8 of his 10 career fights end inside the distance and Park has seen 11 of his 19 fights do the same. Because they both have a good finish rate, backing this fight to end inside the distance will be the lean.
Dustin Jacoby ML over Khalil Roundtree Jr (-175)
Dustin Jacoby comes into this fight with an MMA record of 18-5-1. He is 7-2-1 in the UFC, most recently beating Da-Un Jung by KO/TKO back in July of this year. Jacoby is averaging 5.27 significant strikes per minute and has a striking accuracy of 46%. He is absorbing 3.77 strikes and has a striking defense of 59%. His grappling likely not play a factor, averaging just 0.38 takedowns per every 15 minutes. Jacoby has a takedown accuracy of 42% and his takedown defense is 58%.
Jacoby is the favorite and looks to be the right side. He has been much more consistent in the UFC, and has the superior striking. For that reason, backing Jacoby will be the play.
Waldo Cortes-Acosta ML over Jared Vanderaa (-195)
The third fight on the Main Card at UFC Fight Night 213 has Waldo Cortes-Acosta taking on Jared Vanderaa. This is a fight in the UFC Heavyweight division. Cortes-Acosta comes into this fight with an MMA record of 7-0. He is 1-0 in the UFC, though this will be his official UFC debut. His only UFC fight was in the Dana White Contender Series, where he beat Danilo Suzart by KO/TKO back in August of this year. Cortes-Acosta is averaging 11.73 significant strikes per minute and has a striking accuracy of 48%. He is absorbing 4.09 strikes and has a striking defense of 44%.
Vanderaa has been very inconsistent in the UFC, losing his last 3 fights in a row and 4 of his last 5 fights. Cortes-Acosta looked great in his Contender Series fight, therefore backing him to start his UFC career with a win will be the play.
