MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Vegas 101

Welcome to UFC 2025, as we are kicking the year off with one of the most UFC Apexish cards ever. It is a very curious way to start the year for the UFC, as there is not much high-level or ranked action to speak of. That distinction is solely reserved for the main event on […]

Here we are -- the final UFC event of 2024, and it is a pickle wrapped in a riddle.

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC 310

So many fun fights, so many expensive hitters, and so many tempting underdogs.

MMA DFS DraftKings Value Picks For UFC Macau

A card stocked full of Road to UFC talent is always tough to call, and I ended up mostly avoiding a lot of those fighters who are priced right in the middle on DraftKings. I'm not going to lie -- UFC 309 was kind of a letdown, which speaks more to the absurdity of the […]
