Amanda Nunes -275 vs Julianna Pena +220
After Pena’s upset win in December, an immediate rematch was scheduled. Pena was +700 at closing in her win over Nunes for the tite. She also upset McMann at +100 after losing to Randamie at +162. Nunes lost 400 points in the way of favorite status, opening as a -250 compared to -800 in 2021.

| In Round 3 | +900 | +2200 |
| In Round 4 | +1400 | +2800 |
| In Round 5 | +2200 | +3500 |
Pena won via choke in the second round, but the odds are focused more on past fights, viewing her win as more of a fluke than anything. Nunes has the better UFC stats in nearly every category, though Pena has a .1 more frequent submission average.
High Risk Prop: Pena by Submission +500
The champ could easily win this way again. Nunes has switched away from American Top Team and this is her first full camp at her new gym. Without the guidance of world class BJJ coaches, who knows what Nunes’ grappling game is looking like coming into this rematch.
Over Under Bets for Pena vs Nunes

| Fight Completes Round 2 | -135 | +105 |
| Fight Completes Round 3 | +110 | -145 |
| Fight Completes Round 4 | +150 | -200 |
Pena has seen only two decisions in her last six fights, and only one in her last five. She’s a kill or be killed fighter, that will continue to pressure into fighters like Shevchenko, even winning in significant strikes before losing via armbar in the second round.
Low Risk Prop Bet: Fight Goes the Distance, No -250
Amanda Nunes has seen three decisions in her last ten fights. On average, these fighters see finishes in the first two rounds. Nunes has one fifth round finish as well, and Pena is only going into her second five round fight. Fans of Nunes should look to this prop to hedge against Pena’s growing skill.
Special Bets for Nunes vs Pena
| Fighter | Nunes | Pena |
| Most Significant Strikes | -275 | +200 |
| Most Takedowns Landed | -115 | -115 |
| TKO or Submission | -135 | +175 |
| Submission or Decision | +175 | +250 |
Nunes lands an average of +1 significant strikes per minute, while all other factors are similar. Pena landed 33 more significant strikes in their last bout, but on average Nunes landed far more, but in each loss Nunes has been out landed in significant strikes.
Prediction: Julianna Pena Money Line +220
Nunes looked skittish at the press conference, and there are still so many things unclear. Family issues, coaching and camp issues, and Pena’s growing intensity in training footage all point to a repeat of one of the greatest MMA ‘flukes’ of the last year.

Brandon Moreno -220 vs Kai Kara-France +180
Moreno was the underdog when he won the title and the favorite when he lost it. Moreno also lost to Sergio Pettis at -170 and Pantoja at -110 in 2017. Kara-France is on a three fight winning streak since his loss to royval. Moreno beat him in 2019, showing as a +144 in their first meet up.
UFC Betting Odds for Moreno vs Kara-France
| Fighter | Brandon Moreno | Kai Kara-France |
| Money Line | -220 | +180 |
| Points or Decision | +129 | +300 |
| TKO | +650 | +475 |

| In Round 3 | +1200 | +2500 |
| In Round 4 | +1800 | +3500 |
| In Round 5 | +2500 | +4000 |
Moreno has a far better submission game, finishing three opponent’s inside the UFC. In their first bout, he chose to kickbox with Kara-France, but it wouldn’t surprise me if more ground work came into play in this fight. Kara-France has finished two of his last three by TKO, accounting for his first two finishes in the UFC.

Medium Risk Prediction: Moreno Inside the Distance -220
Moreno now knows Kara-France’s weakness is submission and ground work. He’s submitted the current champion, and cound do the same to Kara-France. I hope the last fight showed Moreno that his strength lies in implementing a mixture of kickboxing and grappling.
Over Under Bets for Moreno vs Kara-France
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -525 | +340 |
| 2.5 Rounds | -285 | +210 |

| Fight Completes Round 2 | -400 | +275 |
| Fight Completes Round 3 | -250 | +185 |
| Fight Completes Round 4 | -185 | +140 |
In losses, Moreno has seen only decisions. Since no fighters have finished him, if you think Kara-France is going to win, consider the over props. Kara-France has two first round knockouts, but both have been against fighters that were slipping into losing streaks.
Low Risk Bet: Over 1.5 rounds -525
Neither fighter has been finished early. Kara-France was choked in the second round in 2020, but we can assume he’s improved his ground game with Volkanovski and other City Boxing sprawl and brawl fighters. I don’t see an early finish from either man, and the UFC 277 odds agree.
Special Bets for Moreno vs Kara-France
| Fighter | Moreno | Kara-France |
| Most Significant Strikes | -200 | +150 |
| Most Takedowns Landed | -650 | +400 |
| TKO or Decision | -135 | +185 |
| Submission or Decision | -150 | +250 |
At the end, this is a fight between a fantastic striker and a former world champion. Kara-France has his work cut out for him, and the upset of Askarov means little considering Moreno’s multidimensional style.
UFC 277 Co Main Prediction: Moreno Money Line -220
Moreno will see a rematch with the champ, the first fourth match for a title in UFC history. Given Moreno’s improving striking and rock solid chin, we’ll see a long fight with plenty of opportunities for Kara-France to swing for the fences. Keep in mind this is his first time fighting a five round bout, and Brandon’s fifth

Derrick Lewis +113 vs Sergei Pavlovich -139
Lewis is coming off a brutal knockout loss to Tuivasa, which was his first time as the favorite in five fights despite winning three of them. Pavlovich lost his UFC debut as the favorite to Overeem, but has since won three fights as the favorite ranging -225 to -320.
UFC Betting Odds for Lewis vs Pavlovich
| Fighter | Derrick Lewis | Sergei Pavlovich |
| Money Line | +113 | -139 |
| Points or Decision | +700 | +650 |
| TKO | +140 | +110 |
| Submission | +3300 | +1600 |
| Inside the Distance | +140 | +100 |
| In Round 1 | +250 | +210 |
| In Round 2 | +550 | +450 |
| In Round 3 | +1100 | +1000 |
Sergei’s three knockout wins took a total of eight minutes.
If you add his knockout loss to Overeem, he’s only been in the octagon 8:43.
Lewis had slowed down against Latifi and Ivanov, but has since sped back up, losing or winning by TKO five fights in a row.
High Risk Bet: Lewis by TKO +140
Lewis is a bad style for Pavlovich. On average, Sergei gets hit 4.45 times per 6.08 he lands. Derrick gets hit on a 1:1 striking count overall, but commonly looks to trade with fighters to end the night early. Sergei’s style plays into Lewis’ game.
Over Under Bets for Lewis vs Pavlovich
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | +125 | -165 |
| 2.5 Rounds | +285 | -425 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | +420 | -700 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -150 | +115 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | +200 | -275 |
The Under props are big favorites here, with both men having been knocked out in recent losses. Lewis hasn’t lost a decision ever in the UFC. Since 2014, all of Lewis’ losses have been finished.
Prediction: Under 2.5 Rounds -425
Neither fighter wastes much time getting into the mix. Sergei likes to pressure men with his size early on, so expect him to put his five inch reach advantage to use, and march Lewis down. Someone is going to sleep in this knockout striking matchup.

Alex Perez +155 vs Alexandre Pantoja -190
Pantoja has lost to better grapplers in Askarov and Figueiredo at -175 and -125 respectively. Pantoja is yet to be a UFC underdog despite three losses. Perez hasn’t been in the UFC since his loss to Figueriedo in 2020. He was a +225 underdog in his loss, and a -120 favorite in his first loss to Benavidez. Perez upset Shelton in 2018 as a +120.
UFC Betting Odds for Perez vs Pantoja
| Fighter | Alex Perez | Alexandre Pantoja |
| Money Line | +155 | -190 |
| Points or Decision | +295 | +150 |
| TKO | +700 | +600 |
| Submission | +900 | +350 |
| Inside the Distance | +150 | -200 |
| In Round 1 | +800 | +4000 |
| In Round 2 | +1100 | +6500 |
| In Round 3 | +1800 | +1100 |
Perez boasts five UFC finishes in nine fights. His submission work stops the takedowns of most fighters, averaging 1.3 attempts per fight, generally when the opponent works a double leg. Pantoja’s average 1.26 takedowns per fight may be completely left out, turning this into a striker vs grappler match up.
Pantoja rebounded against Matt Schnell in another of Schnell’s many insane rounds, finishing the fight in round 1. They were swinging from the start. Both men got hurt early but Pantoja had a clear advantage throughout.

High Risk Prediction: Pantoja by Decision/Points +150
Perez took too much time off, and it’s unclear if he was working on his game or just resting. Pantoja will occasionally win via knockout, but I don’t see Perez getting finished for the second time of his career, and I don’t think Pantoja can win the submission or will even look for it.
Over Under Bets for Perez vs Pantoja
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -275 | +200 |
| 2.5 Rounds | -155 | +120 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | -128 | -107 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -450 | +300 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | -190 | +145 |
Of his last five, Pantoja has seen three decisions and finishes in the first and second round. Perez has seen only one decision, but his five fight span goes back to 2018 and includes his fight with Benevidez.
Low Risk Prediction: Fight Completes Round 1 -450
Neither man has finished many top five fighters. They skipped them on the way to the title shot, or went to decision as with Askarov and Mark De La Rosa. I see Pantoja fighting safe, ensuring he’s up for a title shot after Moreno. It may not be the best plan, but he needs to hold onto his position if he wants dibs on the #1 contender spot.
Prediction: Pantoja Money Line -190
Perez has taken too much time off, and his grappling centered style is frustrating but his 45% takedown percentage isn’t enough to put Pantoja on the floor. Expect an early flurry of attempts, followed by two rounds of Pantoja winning the stand up battle.

Anthony Smith +400 vs Magomed Ankalaev -575
Smith is on a three fight winning streak finishing each fight as the favorite.
He’s lost his last two underdog showings to Rakic and Jones.
Ankalaev is on an eight fight winning streak, defeating Santos via decision, a fight we had Santos winning, at -625.
UFC Betting Odds for Smith vs Ankalaev
| Fighter | Magomed Ankalaev | Anthony Smith |
| Money Line | -575 | +400 |
| Points or Decision | +100 | +900 |
| TKO | +170 | +900 |
| Submission | +1000 | +1200 |
| Inside the Distance | -550 | +350 |
| In Round 1 | +300 | +1400 |
| In Round 2 | +500 | +1800 |
| In Round 3 | +1000 | +2500 |
Magomed’s TKO prop is the most likely outcome of any method of victory. Smith has far more UFC career finishes, but also far more losses since 2011. He’s struggled against Santos’ power, landing only ten shots before he was knocked out in 2018.
Low Risk Prop: Ankalaev by TKO +170
Though Ankalaev is on a three fight decision streak, he’s a fighter that has one punch knockout power. Of his last three opponents, Smith has been knocked out more times in his UFC career than any of them.
High Risk Prop: Smith By Submission +1200
Hear me out before you keep scrolling. Smith has submitted four of his last seven opponents. I think he’s recreating himself as a submission specialist. Craig submitted Ankalaev with only seconds left, and I could see a fight where Smith survived and managed to catch Ankalaev’s ground game slipping yet again.
Over Under Bets for Smith vs Ankalaev
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -260 | +190 |
| 2.5 Rounds | -165 | +125 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | -130 | +100 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -400 | +275 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | -175 | +135 |
Anthony is coming off a string of finishes; Ankalev three decisions after three TKOs. I don’t see this fight going the distance and I think someone will finish it.
Prediction: Fight Goes the Distance, No +100
Neither fighter wants this to go the distance. Ankalaev wants Jiri and he’s going to have to finish Smith to get the shot before Glover. Smith has been tasting those fight bonuses (two in his last three showings) and he’s not going to let up now. Bet these double your money UFC 277 odds for an easy win.

Alex Morono +132 vs Matthew Semelsberger -164
Morono is on a three fight winning streak, his first since 2018. He’s facing a popular newcomer in Semelsberger, who’s only UFC loss is to Khoas WIlliams.
UFC Betting Odds for Morono vs Semelsberger
| Fighter | Alex Morono | Matthew Semelsberger |
| Money Line | +132 | -164 |
| Points or Decision | +235 | +160 |
| TKO | +240 | +240 |

| In Round 1 | +1000 | +400 |
| In Round 2 | +1400 | +700 |
| In Round 3 | +2200 | +1100 |
Morono is the underdog in decision methods of victory. He’s lost three decisions in his UFC career. Semelsberger went the distance with Williams, while Morono was knocked out with just ten strikes in the very first round.
High Risk Prediction: Semelsberger by TKO
Matthew has the kind of one punch knockout power that has put Morono away in the past. Morono survived Anthony Pettis, but this was after his glory KO days.
Over Under Bets for Morono vs Semelsberger
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -350 | +250 |
| 2.5 Rounds | -190 | +145 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | -155 | +120 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -550 | +350 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | -220 | +165 |
Given that Morno has been finished twice in the first round in under two minutes, butting the Over 1.5 doesn’t feel right. Both fighters have a majority of decisions in their UFC career, combined at around 60%. That isn’t enough to sway us one way or the other.
Prediction: Semelsberger Money Line -164
Matthew is on the way up in the UFC division. Morono faced three fighters with a majority losses in their last five fights and beat them, but that doesn’t mean he’ll be making a return to the promise he showed after getting the win over Max Griffin in 2018.
Drew Dober -186 vs Rafael Alves +151
Dober defeated McKinney, a fight that we had no inclination he would win. He showed his composure and high level MMA IQ in that bout. He faces Alves, a submission fighter who struggles with strikers.
UFC Betting Odds for Dober vs Alves
| Fighter | Drew Dober | Rafael De Silva Alves |
| Money Line | -186 | +151 |
| Points or Decision | +215 | +600 |
| TKO | +165 | +850 |
| Submission | +1000 | +375 |
| Inside the Distance | -220 | +165 |
| In Round 1 | +250 | +550 |
| In Round 2 | +450 | +800 |
| In Round 3 | +1000 | +1400 |
Dober is racking up finishes, scoring eight in his UFC career to date. However, over the last six fights, Dober has seen four TKOs. He’s also open to submissions, and has been submitted five times in his UFC career. It’s tough to choose a method of victory, because either man could put the other away.
Over Under Bets for Drew vs Alves
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -145 | +110 |
| 2.5 Rounds | +135 | -175 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | +170 | -225 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -250 | +185 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | +110 | -145 |
Our top bet on this one feels obvious; either Dober gets submitted or Alves gets starched.
Prediction: Fight Goes the Distance, No -225
It’s good to see that the UFC 277 odds from Bovada agree with my analysis. This prop bet is a stronger favorite than either man’s money line. Look to bet the Under for a $46 return per $100 wagerd.

Don’tale Mayes -190 vs Hamdy Abdelwahab +155
Mayes is now 4-2 for the UFC and has been finished three times. He’s facing a UFC newcomer in Hamdy, an undefeated pro with multiple knockout wins, including a four fight amatuer career with all TKOs.
UFC Betting Odds for Mayes vs Abdelwahab
| Fighter | Don’tale Mayes | Hamdy Abdelwahab |
| Money Line | -190 | +155 |

| TKO | +150 | +375 |

| In Round 1 | +275 | +550 |
| In Round 2 | +500 | +800 |
| In Round 3 | +1000 | +1400 |
Mayes deserves an easier bout after facing both Gane and Nascimento as they rose to the top ten. He may not get it against Hamdy. This guy hasn’t really fought anyone good, but he’s a massive powerhouse with scary knockout speed.
High Risk Prediction: Mayes TKO Prop +150
I still see Mayes as the better fighter, and unless Hamdy has a takedown game we don’t know about, Mayes will win the standing exchanges using a nine inch reach advantage.
Over Under Bets for Mayes vs Abdelwahab

| Fight Goes the Distance | +151 | -193 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -275 | +200 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | -105 | -125 |
Between these two fighters, there is only one decision in professional bouts. How the Fight Goes the Distance prop is -193, we’ll never know. I would have bet the Mayes money line, but this prop is a steal.
Prediction: Fight Goes the Distance, No -193
Hamdy has four MMA fights (two bare knuckle pro) with finishes inside a minute. I’m not even sure what it would look like if this guy could go the distance.is pace is too frantic. Mayes is fully capable of putting anyone he faces away. Our UFC 277 prediction is an early night, these fighters are built to move quickly.
Drakkar Klose -230 vs Rafa Garcia +180
Klose lost to Dariush via knockout in 2020, but came back this year with a beautiful performance over Brandon Jenkins. Garcia is 2-2 in the UFC and hasn’t shown the best striking. Lets see if Klose’s 68% takedown defense holds.
UFC Betting Odds for Klose vs Garcia
| Fighter | Drakkar Klose | Rafa garcia |
| Money Line | -230 | +280 |
| Points or Decision | -125 | +500 |
| TKO | +325 | +1200 |

| In Round 1 | +550 | +900 |
| In Round 2 | +850 | +1200 |
| In Round 3 | +1400 | +1800 |
Both fighters have only one UFC finish, with Garcia losing his first two fights via decision.
Low Risk Prediction: Klose by Decision/Points -125
Klose has better striking stats than Garcia, getting hit nearly half as often. He struggles with takedowns, but Garcia rarely is able to do real damage with ground strikes. Expect a Klose decision win.
Over Under Bets for Klose vs Garcia
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -385 | +265 |
| 2.5 Rounds | -230 | +175 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | -190 | +145 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -650 | +400 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | -275 | +200 |
The over is promising, with both fighters showing finishes in the second round if at all. However the low payout on -385 isn’t worth skipping the Klose money line.
Prediction: Klose Money Line -230
He’s a talented fighter on the rise. Garcia is a great wrestler, but his lack of ground striking is going to cost him this decision. The UFC 277 odds payout winnings of $43.48 per $100 wager.
Adam Fugitt +450 vs Michael Morales-700
Morales is undefeated and looked amazing in his UFC debut with a first round TKO of Trevin Giles. Fugitt is an 8-2 UFC newcomer looking to steal the 23 year old’s shine.
UFC Betting Odds for Fugitt vs Morales
| Fighter | Adam Fugitt | Michael Morales |
| Money Line | +450 | -700 |
| Inside the Distance | +750 | -200 |
| In Round 1 | +1600 | +150 |
| In Round 2 | +2000 | +350 |
| In Round 3 | +2800 | +800 |
Morales is still growing into his style, but he has all the tools to finish Fugitt. Adam lost before to Kallan Hill, and also to former UFC fighter Nick Maximov in Submission Underground.
Prediction: Morales Inside the Distance -200
This is our bet of choice. Yes, the money line is a safer bet, but Morales can win this fight. I’m glad to see the UFC isn’t ready to throw the 23 year old to the wolves. He has real potential to be a draw if he can rack up some knockout wins.
Over Under Bets for Fugitt vs Morales
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -115 | -115 |
| 2.5 Rounds | +175 | -230 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | +235 | -325 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -190 | +145 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | +130 | -170 |
Both fighters are known for finishes and bothben have seen only two decisions in their respective careers. Still, Fugitt’s early career losses put him just a hair below the phenom.
Prediction: Morales Money Line -700
The payout is small, but I’d be happy to parlay the Morales bet. If you’re skipping out on a parlay ticket this week, consider the finishing prop.
Ji Yeon Kim +105 vs Joselyne Edwards -130
Both fighters have only two wins in the UFC. Kim has two back to back fight of the night bonuses from the UFC, but just can’t close in on a win.
UFC Betting Odds for Kim vs Edwards

| In Round 1 | +1200 | +900 |
| In Round 2 | +1600 | +1400 |
| In Round 3 | +2200 | +2000 |
Kim is the only fighter with a finish between the two. Edwards has no knockdowns, and has only made one submission attempt.
High Risk Prop: Kim via Decision +160
After a review of their style, I can see Kim winning on the ground and taking two rounds with confusing stand up exchanges and control.

Expect a long fight, as Kims knockout came in the final seconds of round 2. Play it safe, and bet the Over 2.5 Rounds prop bet at -410.
Ihor Potieria -105 vs Nicolae Negumereanu -115
Nicolae is on a three fight winning streak, but Ihor is new to the UFC as a 19-2 fighter. He won his DWCS debut in eight seconds, landing 18 shots for the knockout.

| In Round 2 | +650 | +700 |
| In Round 3 | +1000 | +1100 |
Either fighter’s knockout props are compelling, as is the Negumereanu decision prop bet. It’s competitive enough to steer clear of these predictions.
Over Under Bets for Potieria vs Negumereanu
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 1.5 Rounds | -170 | +130 |
| 2.5 Rounds | +110 | -145 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | +155 | -210 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -275 | +200 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | -115 | -115 |
Both fighters have a mix of decisions and TKO wins, and Negumereanu hasn’t faced any UFC talent yet, so there’s no telling where he fairs in skill. This may be a fight to avoid.
Prediction: Negumereanu Money Line -115
Either man could bring this one home, but Nicolae has fewer losses and more UFC level experience.
Blood Diamond +160 vs Orion Cosce -200
The opening fight of the evening pits two knockout strikers. Diamond is yet to get a UFC win after losing his debut in February.
UFC Betting Odds for Diamond vs Cosce
| Fighter | Orion Cosce | Blood Diamond |
| Money Line | -200 | +160 |
| Points or Decision | +400 | +425 |
| TKO | +200 | +250 |
| Submission | +400 | +3000 |
| Inside the Distance | -210 | +160 |
| In Round 1 | +225 | +600 |
| In Round 2 | +450 | +900 |
| In Round 3 | +1000 | +1600 |
Either fighter’s knockout prop bets would be acceptable choices. Cosce has a submission game, and could exploit the fact that Diamond doesn’t appear to have any BJJ training at all.
Over Under Bets for Diamond vs Cosce
| Bet | Over, Yes Odds | Under, No Odds |
| 0.5 Rounds | -650 | +400 |
| 1.5 Rounds | -135 | +105 |
| Fight Goes the Distance | +190 | -260 |
| Fight Completes Round 1 | -220 | +165 |
| Fight Completes Round 2 | +115 | -150 |
The under is a good bet, with the -260 Fight Goes the Distance, no prop bets looking good yet again.
Prediction: Cosce Money Line -200
This UFC betting prediction offers $50 in winnings per $100 wager. Cosce has more experience, a better training camp, and a better professional record.
