Golden Underdogs
There is not any large’dog calling out to me at UFC 218. But there is 1 person on this card who could withstand some odds.
Francis Ngannou (-270) vs. Alistair Overeem (+230)
Alistair Overeem might get merked by a larger and more powerful puncher at Francis Ngannou, but at +230, he’s worth throwing a few pennies in the slightest. Normally I would put this fight in the stay-away category, but this is a big test for Ngannou, a guy who really hasn’t been tested yet.
Overeem is a veteran of the game and, though his chin may be suspect, he has one of the greatest fight IQs from the heavyweight division. His smarts and specialized kickboxing ability could provide us a big upset along with a profit. Do not go crazy on this, though. Ngannou deserves to be favored. Overeem is worth a small bet.
Felice Herrig (-140) vs. Cortney Casey (+110)
Cortney Casey isn’t a huge dog, but her +105 moneyline would still net you a good return or promote a parlay. Both fighters have appeared strong, but stylistically, Casey seems to get the size and strength to provide Herrig issues. The only woman that has been in a position to match Casey’s physicality was Claudia Gadelha and that woman is one of the finest in the division. If Casey can pour on the pressure, she could overwhelm Herrig and get a tiny upset win . Again, don’t go mad and throw down your whole bankroll, but Casey is worth a couple of shekels.
