The Heaters: UFC 257 Poirier vs. McGregor 2 MMA Betting Picks

Conor McGregor via KO/TKO -175

If Conor McGregor wins this bout, it will most likely be via KO/TKO. McGregor has already knocked out Dustin Poirier once, and he will have the confidence to try again. I foresee McGregor capitalizing early and landing a big shot en route to a finish.

Joanne Calderwood by Decision +130

This is not the most exciting bet in the world, but the fight between Joanne Calderwood  and Jessica Eye should be a good one. Both women will look to strike, and in a fight with that style, I favor Calderwood. Calderwood’s volume nearly doubles her opponent and sits at 6.17 significant strikes per minute, whereas Eye’s volume sits at 3.65 significant strikes per minute. I think Calderwood will be one step ahead in this matchup and will win a decision.

Rountree via KO/TKO -200

I had to do a double-take when I saw value on Ottman Azaitar, but he decided to break the health and safety protocols, and was cut from the UFC. Since we have to pivot from the Azaitar via KO/TKO, I found another fighter in a good spot. Khalil Rountree faces off against Marcin Prachnio, who has been knocked out at a high rate in the UFC, and has been knocked out in his past three bouts. Rountree has ridiculous power. I think Prachnio is a hittable opponent, and Rountree should test that chin, en route to a KO/TKO.
