UFC 304 takes place on Saturday at the Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester, England. This card features a UFC Welterweight title fight between Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad as the Main Event and a UFC Interim Heavyweight title fight between Tom Aspinall and Curtis Blaydes in the Co-Main Event.

Here are my favorite UFC parlay picks for this card, with odds of +508 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Also, be sure to check out the rest of our UFC predictions for all of the Main Card fights.

Leon Edwards vs. Belal Muhammad – Fight to go the Distance – Yes (-200)

The Main Event at UFC 304 will see Leon Edwards take on Belal Muhammad. This will be a fight in the UFC Welterweight division and will be for the UFC Welterweight title.

Edwards is the clear favorite in this fight as he is the one who currently holds the UFC Welterweight title. Instead of backing Edwards to win outright, we will be looking for this fight to go the distance. Edwards and Muhammad have both seen 8 of their last 10 UFC fights go the distance, therefore backing the same here will be our lean.

Christian Leroy Duncan ML over Gregory Rodrigues (-142)

Duncan is the moderate-sized favorite in this fight and he looks to be the right side to back here. While Duncan’s striking and grappling is not as strong as Rodrigues’, his defense and accuracy is much better. He also has a high finish rate, having won all of his UFC fights by KO/TKO. Because of this, backing Duncan to win will be our play.

Arnold Allen ML over Giga Chikadze (-238)

He has a takedown accuracy of 50% and his takedown defense is 75%.

Allen is the heavy favorite in this fight and despite the fact that he has lost back-to-back fights, looking at Allen to win will looks to be the right play. Allen has held his own when it comes to striking and he has the edge in grappling compared to Chikadze. For that reason, backing Allen to win will be our play.
