I can definitely see Dolidze getting caught in something funny on a trip takedown attempt.

Women’s Strawweight
Maria Oliveira (+212)
Record: 12-5 (0-1 UFC)
Wins: 7 KO, 1 SUB | Losses: 1 KO, 2 SUB
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (-328); Wins ITD (+808), by decision (+324), by TKO (+958), by submission (+2543)

Props: Under 2.5 rounds (+244); Wins ITD (+301), by decision (-120), by TKO (+379), by submission (+1250)
Best Value: Gloria de Paula ITD (+301)
De Paula is just in a different talent bracket than Oliveira at this stage of their careers. She’s also stronger physically and her movement will stymie the inaccurate Oliveira.
Featherweight
Ricardo Ramos (-306)
Record: 15-4 (6-3 UFC)
Wins: 3 KO, 7 SUB | Losses: 2 KO, 1 SUB
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (-203); Wins ITD (+241), by decision (-110), by TKO (+650), by submission (+378)
Danny Chavez (+243)
Record: 11-4-1 (1-1-1 UFC)
Wins: 3 KO | Losses: 1 SUB
Props: Under 2.5 rounds (+159); Wins ITD (+472), by decision (+561), by TKO (+518), by submission (+2531)
Best Value: Danny Chavez (+243)
Chavez has a much better chance the odds suggest, but this is pop and popcorn all the way.
Welterweight
Court McGee (-104)
Record: 21-10 (10-9 UFC)
Wins: 3 KO, 7 SUB | Losses: 1 KO
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (-196); Wins ITD (+439), by decision (+149), by TKO (+681), by submission (+1267)
Jeremiah Wells (-109)
Record: 10-2-1 (2-0 UFC)
Wins: 4 KO, 4 SUB | Losses: 2 DEC
Props: Under 2.5 rounds (+154); Wins ITD (+246), by decision (+293), by TKO (+443), by submission (+493)
Best Value: Court McGee (-104)
If the odds slip into plus territory for McGee, I’ll jump on it. As of now, I just don’t see any value on this pop-and-popcorn fight.
Women’s Flyweight
Jasmine Jasudavicius (-243)
Record: 7-1 (1-0 UFC)
Wins: 2 KO, 1 SUB | Losses: 1 DEC
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (-221); Wins ITD (+257), by decision (+100), by TKO (+431), by submission (+758)
Natalia Silva (+198)
Record: 12-5-1 (UFC debut)
Wins: 3 KO, 7 SUB | Losses: 1 KO, 2 SUB
Props: Under 2.5 rounds (+170); Wins ITD (+482), by decision (+410), by TKO (+1425), by submission (+586)
Best Value: Jasmine Jasudavicius (-243)
There might be a tiny bit of value still on betting against the debutant, but I’d keep this off my card.
Bantamweight
Adrian Yanez (-286)
Record: 15-3 (4-0 UFC)
Wins: 9 KO, 2 SUB | Losses: 3 DEC
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (-119); Wins ITD (+116), by decision (+176), by TKO (+139), by submission (+967)
Tony Kelley (+231)
Record: 8-2 (2-1 UFC)
Wins: 3 KO, 3 SUB | Losses: 2 DEC
Props: Under 2.5 rounds (-109); Wins ITD (+504), by decision (+517), by TKO (+800), by submission (+994)
Best Value: Over 2.5 rounds (-119)
The safest of the bets in this bout, but you have to like Adrian Yanez’s chances a lot more with Kelley’s weight miss and injury concerns.
Middleweight
Julian Marquez (+148)
Record: 9-2 (3-1 UFC)
Wins: 5 KO, 4 SUB | Losses: 2 DEC
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (+119); Wins ITD (+266), by decision (+479), by TKO (+409), by submission (+873)
Gregory Rodrigues (-177)
Record: 11-4 (2-1 UFC)
Wins: 5 KO, 4 SUB | Losses: 2 KO
Props: Under 2.5 rounds (-151); Wins ITD (+132), by decision (+292), by TKO (+252), by submission (+409)
Best Value: Gregory Rodrigues (-177)
If there was a fighter built to beat Marquez, Rodrigues would be it. What he does well, Marquez does poorly.
Lightweight
Damir Ismagulov (-170)
Record: 23-1 (4-0 UFC)
Wins: 12 KO, 1 SUB | Losses: 1 DEC
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (-242); Wins ITD (+371), by decision (+113), by TKO (+398), by submission (+1622)
Guram Kutateladze (+141)
Record: 12-2 (1-0 UFC)
Wins: 7 KO, 1 SUB | Losses: 1 SUB
Props: Under 2.5 rounds (+184); Wins ITD (+336), by decision (+320), by TKO (+390), by submission (+1806)
Best Value: Guram Kutateladze (+141)
Soda pop. Buttered popcorn.
Middleweight
Joaquin Buckley (+192)
Record: 14-4 (4-2 UFC)
Wins: 10 KO | Losses: 3 KO
Props: Over 1.5 rounds (-158); Wins ITD (+284), by decision (+608), by TKO (+289), by submission (+2856)
Albert Duraev (-235)
Record: 15-3 (1-0 UFC)
Wins: 3 KO, 9 SUB | Losses: 3 KO
Props: Under 1.5 rounds (+124); Wins ITD (+120), by decision (+250), by TKO (+384), by submission (+252)
Best Value: Under 1.5 rounds (+124)
Either Buckley earns a quick knockout, or Duraev smothers him on the mat and probably finds a finish while he does so.
Welterweight
Tim Means (+241)
Record: 32-12-1 (14-9-1 UFC)
Wins: 19 KO, 5 SUB | Losses: 2 KO, 5 SUB
Props: Over 2.5 rounds (-131); Wins ITD (+521), by decision (+432), by TKO (+584), by submission (+1708)
Kevin Holland (-302)
Record: 22-7 (9-4 UFC)
Wins: 12 KO, 6 SUB | Losses: 2 SUB
Props: Under 2.5 rounds (+103); Wins ITD (+142), by decision (+161), by TKO (+210), by submission (+644)
Best Value: Over 2.5 rounds (-131)
This is pop and popcorn all the way for me, but Means could dirty up this fight and let the judges handle the aftermath.
Lightweight
Donald Cerrone (-166)
Record: 36-16 (23-13 UFC)
Wins: 10 KO, 17 SUB | Losses: 8 KO, 1 SUB
Props: Over 1.5 rounds (-153); Wins ITD (+126), by decision (+357), by TKO (+172), by submission (+607)
Joe Lauzon (+139)
Record: 28-15 (15-12 UFC)
Wins: 8 KO, 18 SUB | Losses: 6 KO, 3 SUB
Props: Under 1.5 rounds (+121); Wins ITD (+246), by decision (+463), by TKO (+431), by submission (+700)
Best Value: Joe Lauzon (+139)
A long layoff usually makes me skeptical, but it can only do good things for the 38-year-old underdog.
Featherweight
Calvin Kattar (-235)
Record: 23-5 (7-3 UFC)
Wins: 10 KO, 3 SUB | Losses: 1 SUB
Props: Over 4.5 rounds (-133); Wins ITD (+197), by decision (+138), by TKO (+199), by submission (+1700)
Josh Emmett (+192)
Record: 17-2 (8-2 UFC)
Wins: 6 KO, 2 SUB | Losses: 1 KO
Props: Under 4.5 rounds (+106); Wins ITD (+355), by decision (+490), by TKO (+431), by submission (+2033)
Best Value: Emmett TKO (+431)
This fight might just be one-sided until it isn’t. Nobody hits harder than Emmett, and Kattar will give him chances to end it with one punch.
