UFC 300 Early Betting Predictions & Odds

UFC 300 takes place on April 13th at T-Mobile Arena and this is one of the most stacked cards in recent memory. It still might be a few weeks ago, but let’s preview a few of the fights and make a betting prediction so you can lock in the best line early. 

Alex Pereira vs Jamahal Hill

Pereira -160 / HIll +125

Alex Pereira and Jamahal Hill face off for the light heavyweight belt in the main event. Alex Pereira started as a kicKBOxer and he’s going to go back to his roots in this fight. Pereira’s signature is his leg kicks, and although early on it might not make a huge impact early, as the fight goes, that’s what is going to be the difference. Hill has knockout power, but he’s not going to have any answer for the leg kicks. By round three and round four, Hill is going to have issues standing on that leg. Back Pereira on the money line to cash here. 

Justin Gaethje vs Max Holloway 

Gaethje -240 / Holloway +200

Justin Gaethje and Max Holloway face off on the main card in a lightweight bout. This fight will have the BMF belt on the line. Holloway might have shown a few signs of slowing down, but I still think there is value here with him as the underdog. Holloway is still a volume fighter and he’s going to put the pressure on in this fight. Holloway might not get the knockout, but his pressure is going to be too much as Holloway is going to pull the upset. Back Holloway on the money line. 

Bo Nickal vs Cody Brundage

Nickal -1600 / Brundage +750 

Bo Nickal and Cody Brundage face off in a middleweight bout that hs a ton of hype. The UFC seems to bringing up Nickal slow, which might be smart for a guy some believe could win a title. At some point though, they need to give Nickal some sort of comPetition. Brundage has won two straight fights, but before that, he had lost three in a row. Nickal won two fights in the Dana White Contender’s Series and has won two fights inside the UFC. Each of those four fights have come by finish with three by submission and one by knockout. It will be much of the same here, Back Nickal by finish. 

Deiveson Figueiredo vs Cody Garbrandt

Figueiredo -340 / Garbrandt +270.

Deiveson Figueiredo and Cody Garbrandt face off in a bantamweight bout at UFC 300. You know it’s a loaded card when Figueiredo and Garbrandt are the two fighters that are kicking off the early prelims. Both of these fighters are former champions and both should have some confidence that they can get the job done here. Grabrandt has won two fights in a row, and he looked really good in his last knockout fight. I have always really liked Garbrandt, and he’s still a very talented fighter. He has power, and is an elite wrestler. Garbrandt at +270 is too much value to pass up.
