Weigh-in results are in the books and all 22 fighters have successfully made weight for UFC 289 tomorrow night from Vancouver, Canada. The event will be headlined by Amanda Nunes and Irene Aldana in a matchup for the UFC Women’s Bantamweight title. This is a pretty small card with only eleven fights, but there are still several matchups that should be highly entertaining.
The fighters who I’m most comfortable picking on this card are Mike Malott, Amanda Nunes, Blake Bilder, and Miranda Maverick. My favorite potential betting upset for this event is Chris Curtis in his matchup against Nassourdine Imavov. For my thoughts on the main event, check out my Pick, Prediction & Favorite Prop Bets for Nunes/Aldana.
My favorite bet of the weekend is Malott U1.5 Rounds at +110 on DraftKings Sportsbook. Malott has a 100% first-round stoppage rate in his wins, and despite his opponent making weight, Fugitt was the last fighter to the scale by over an hour and looked pretty drained to say the least. I definitely expect Malott to feed off the energy of the crowd and to get this one done early.
