UFL Best Bets: Week 9 Picks

The parlay of Showboats ML + Defenders ML hit last week, and overall, I went 7-2 last week. That's how we get back on track--but now that the playoff picture is locked in, we have a whole new set of variables to consider for Week 9. If anything, it is probably the players on the […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 106

This card is going to take some heat--both for the card and the fact that we are back in the UFC Apex. Reality will hit hard. Hopefully, they make this one count--we have UFC Vegas 106, another one-week hiatus, UFC Vegas 107, and then we head to Newark for UFC 316. It is easy to […]

UFL Best Bets: Week 8 Picks

The parlay of the week missed by just one leg last week, and it was because of the Roughnecks blowing that lead and losing to the Stallions by eight. Well, that figures. I went 4-4 last in Week 7, though, so we are starting to balance out from a rough and tumble in the previous […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 315

What a card for the women of flyweight, and what a weird one to call for the men of 205-lb. We are getting a two-title-fight PPV card in Montreal this weekend after several consecutive cards on the road--next week, it is back to the UFC Apex. If Belal Muhammad gets past JDM on Saturday, he […]

UFL Best Bets: Week 7 Picks

Okay, let's make that two not-good weeks in a row. The Brahmas have proven that they are clearly the worst in the league, the Roughnecks are right there in the USFL postseason picture, the Panthers top the Power Rankings...and the Battlehawks pick up a win over Arlington in one of the ugliest single sporting events […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Des Moines

We are getting a dream of a bantamweight matchup, an awesome middleweight co-main event, Miesha Tate, and another live audience. Honestly, even though last week wasn't a PPV and the card wasn't PPV material, the crowd in a not-often visited city gave the event a PPV-like vibe, and it had me feeling something that UFC […]

UFL Best Bets: Week 6 Picks

Wow. What an amazingly entertaining week full of huge surprises and horrible picks. D.C. pulls off the biggest comeback in UFL history? Houston creams San Antonio in the Alamodome? Birmingham takes a loss to the Showboats? The USFL playoff race is actually a race. This league might have some parity. Dresser Winn was Offensive Player […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Kansas City

Say what you will about Ian Garry and Carlos Prates, but wow, do they have gumption and know how to save a show. For a division like welterweight, which has seen a lot of shuffling amongst its rankings, this fight is pivotal for contendership. Sean Brady, Shavkat Rakhmonov, Jack Della Maddalena, Joaquin Buckley, and Michael […]

UFL Best Bets: Week 5 Picks

I went 6-3 last week with the underdog pick of Arlington over St. Louis, so all in all, it was a good Week 4--however, my gumption in picking four ML winners in the Parlay of the Week was foolhardy, as I again missed by one leg. The injury news of the past week has significantly shaken […]

UFL Betting Picks: Best Bets for Week 4

I went 4-5 last week, and the parlay missed by one leg again, but the bright side was the most entertaining and quality week of UFL football so far in 2025. This week, we have already seen key signings, including Taco Charlton with Arlington. Wade Phillips has taken a leave of absence, leaving Payton Pardee […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 314

Now this is a stacked event, with a handful of fan favorites and a solid contribution by Bellator. The stories with this card just keep developing. Somehow, Bryce Mitchell vs. Jean Silva adds a wrinkle by the minute, and Yair Rodriguez and Diego Lopes might just decide to forego their currently scheduled bouts and fight […]

UFL Best Bets: Week 3 Picks

Now that looked like the Birmingham Stallions! Last week saw some very interesting results, including another nine-point, miserable performance by San Antonio and a bizarre 11-9 win for the Renegades over the Roughnecks. I went 5-4 last week on spreads, over/unders, and the ML play on Birmingham, but the parlay missed again. With how much […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 105

This card is an absolute minefield of uncertainty, but this main event should be fun. I came up with a couple of lineups where I used either Josh Emmett or Lerone Murphy, but now that Kennedy Nzechukwu is out of his fight with Martin Buday, it becomes a real head-scratcher as to who you should […]

UFL Best Bets: Week 2 Picks

Well, the opening week is always full of curveballs, and 2025 was no exception. We actually saw the Birmingham Stallions lose a game, looking bad in the process. Overall, I went 3-3-1 on spreads and over/unders last week, so a bit inconvenient that neither parlay worked out. It is a short season, so the pressure […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Mexico City

You know I love the flyweights, and I don't see how this main event wouldn't deliver. My attention is being taken in all directions this week with Kentucky in the Sweet 16, heartbreak on Reds Opening Day, and the start of the UFL season, but another UFC Fight Night event at an actual location is […]

UFL Best Bets: Preseason Futures & Week 1 Picks

2024 was once again the year of the Birmingham Stallions, with yet another well-rounded season, an MVP award for Adrian Martinez, and their third-straight Spring Football championship. However, some of the other stories, both good and bad, were almost equally as captivating. There is always the discussion of financial concerns and potential expansion, but we […]

The English and U.K. presence is strong this week in the UFC's 16th trip to London. This is the first of two straight UFC Fight Night events that will be held at locations outside of the Apex with a crowd, which many are very excited to see, considering how the crowds in London and Mexico […]

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 104

There's nothing like a weird rematch to headline a UFC Vegas card the week after a big-time PPV. Though there has been a lot of talk about the quality of this card: 1) it always seems to be those cards that generate some of the best entertainment, 2) I will always prefer fights to no […]

Now, here is one we've all been waiting for. It will be very difficult for this PPV event to not deliver. The opportunity to finally deliver for Magomed Ankalaev and the opportunity to exponentially grow his legacy and silence all talks of ducking for Alex Pereira.
