It’s finally fight day for the final UFC numbered event of the year, as UFC 282 will take place later today inside the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. After a number of changes and cancelled fights, we now have a finalized 12-fight card.

This week I decided to focus a majority of my bets on the fighters that I am most confident in to pick up wins tonight: Magomed Ankalaev, Paddy Pimblett, Raul Rosas Jr, and Edmen Shahbazyan.

I also ran straight bets on my two favorite underdogs of the card: Bryce Mitchell and Chris Curtis.

If you decide to bet Paddy Pimblett to Win Inside the Distance and have access to FanDuel Sportsbook, it’s currently boosted to +130.

Boosts always make me a bit hesitant even when I love a play, so I’m trying to decide between hitting the line a little harder or hedging my two current plays with a small Pimblett by Points bet.

As usual, pick and choose the spots where you are most comfortable. If you are tailing any of these plays or already on some of these bets, best of luck tonight and let’s make some money!
