UFC 324 Betting Picks

1. Derrick Lewis vs Waldo Cortes-Acosta

   Won

   Odds 1.95American −105

   Waldo Cortes-Acosta to Win by KO/TKO

   I think Lewis is aging and getting 'chinier'. Cortes-Acosta is a much better boxer and I expect him to piece Lewis up for the KO.

2. Justin Gaethje vs Paddy Pimblett

   Lost

   Odds 2.45American +145

   Paddy Pimblett by submission

   I see a systematic jiu-jitsu difference for Pimblett on the ground, and I know Gaethje makes grappling mistakes.

3. Sean O'Malley vs Song Yadong

   Won

   Odds 2.15American +115

   Sean O'Malley by decision

   I believe O'Malley is a level above on the feet, with way more power than Yadong's previous opponents like Sandhagen.

4. Natalia Silva vs Rose Namajunas

   Won

   Odds 1.44American −227

   Natalia Silva by decision

   I think Silva is too good off the back foot and her kicks will be too much. Namajunas leaves fights close too often.

5. Andre Pulv vs Gutierre

   Lost

   Odds 1.24American −417

   Gutierre by TKO

   I'm calling this unfair matchmaking. Gutierre is a massive favorite who nukes opponents, while Pulv was timid in his last fight.

6. Natalya Silva vs Rose Namajunas

   Won

   Odds 1.25American −405

   Natalya Silva to Win

7. Arnold Allen vs Jean Silva

   Won

   Odds 1.36American −276

   Jean Silva to Win

   I think Silva is too creative and aggressive; I don't see Allen finding his footing after a long layoff while reacting to that style.

8. Deiveson Figueiredo vs Umar Nurmagomedov

   Won

   Odds 1.07American −1333

   Umar Nurmagomedov to Win

   I see more paths to victory for Umar, though he won't be bigger, stronger, faster, or the better striker or wrestler.

9. Denzel Freeman vs Josh Hokit

   Won

   Odds 1.43American −232

   Josh Hokit to Win

   I expect Hokit to be faster and cleaner. His forward pressure and high-level wrestling should be too much for Freeman.

10. Adam Fugitt vs Ty Miller

    Won

    Odds 1.25American −400

    Ty Miller to Win

    I'm backing Miller. He's clean, busy, fast, and accurate, using his length well. If he sticks to his game plan and lets his hands go, he wins.
