Our Picks:

Volkanovski @2/1

Usman @5/2

Walker @11/4

This is a dog treble.

To further elaborate. Usman looked terrible last fight but he is a legend. Volkanovski is a legend and in my opinion almost won the last fight.

With Johnny Walker anything can happen but we’ve always been on the losing end of his fights somehow.

We try to look for good under dog odds when we can find them because. Recently had a couple good hits on Bobby Green and Barboza. We have a decent history of hitting under dogs in the main event. Lets see if that continues.

 

Naimov Muhammad @5/2

After going up a weight class and finishing Jamie Mullarky, Naimov is looking to get a win streak going against Nathaniel Wood.

Wood, a already small featherweight, was really struggling with Charles Jordain’s power despite winning the fight. We think the power advantage is gonna be too much for wood. Were also surprised Naimov is such a big underdog tbh massive value we think.

 

Other Picks we like:

Aliskerov via KO/TKO @7/5 – This looks a solid value pick.

Trevor Peek ML @8/13

Dumas ML @4/9

 

We may add some more picks by fight day but these are our early leans, odds may change.
