Arman Tsarukyan vs Joaquim Silva – Fight to end by KO/TKO (-150)
Arman Tsarukyan is easily the biggest favorite on the entire card, making his money line too risky. What looks more likely is for this fight to end by KO/TKO. Tsarukyan has seen 2 of his last 4 fights end by KO/TKO, while Joaquim Silva has seen each of his last 4 fights end by this method. For that reason, backing this fight to also end by KO/TKO will be our play.
Pat Sabatini vs Lucas Almeida – Fight to go the Distance – No (-175)
Pat Sabatini is a heavy favorite in this fight, but Lucas Almeida’s record speaks for itself, which certainly makes him a live dog. Almeida has seen 14 of his 15 fights end inside the distance, while Sabatini has seen 14 of his 21 career fights do the same. For that reason, backing this fight to also end inside the distance will be our play.

Torres is averaging 10.50 significant strikes per minute and has a striking accuracy of 55%. He is absorbing 3.74 strikes and has a striking defense of 58%. Torres has not shown much grappling ability in the UFC yet, but does have a takedown defense of 100%.
Torres is a heavy favorite in this fight, but this looks to be the right play given how dominant he has been in the UFC so far. He has the superior striking, and doesn’t absorb that much damage, therefore backing him to win will be our play.
Muslim Salikhov ML over Nicolas Dalby (-180)
Muslim Salikhov comes into this fight with an MMA record of 19-3. He is 6-2 in the UFC, most recently beating Andre Fialho by KO/TKO back in November of 2022. Salikhov is averaging 3.30 significant strikes per minute and has a striking accuracy of 49%. He is absorbing 2.43 strikes and has a striking defense of 67%. As for grappling, Salikhov is averaging 1.20 takedowns per every 15 minutes. He has a takedown accuracy of 35% and a takedown defense of 77%.
Salikhov is a large favorite in this fight, but this price looks warranted given the fact that he has been consistent overall in the UFC. His striking volume is slightly worse than Nicolas Dalby, but his grappling is better and he absorbs less damage. For that reason, backing Salikhov to win will be our play.
