Here are my favorite UFC parlay picks for this card, with odds of +488 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Also, be sure to check out the rest of our UFC predictions for all of the Main Card fights.

Raquel Pennington ML over Julianna Pena (-170)

The Co-Main Event at UFC 307 will see Raquel Pennington take on Julianna Pena. This will be a fight in the UFC Women’s Bantamweight division and will also be for the UFC Women’s Bantamweight title.

Pennington enters this fight with an MMA record of 16-9 and she is 13-5 in the UFC. She averages 4.14 significant strikes per minute and has a striking accuracy of 52%. Pennington absorbs 3.29 strikes and has a striking defense of 60%. Her grappling has also been decent, averaging 0.90 takedowns every 15 minutes. That said, her takedown accuracy is only 27% and her takedown defense is 63%.

Pennington is the clear favorite in this fight but still looks to be worth a bet. Her striking volume is superior to that of Pena and even though Pennington is lacking in the grappling department, her takedown defense should help mitigate the advantage Pena will have. For that reason, backing Pennington to win and defend her title will be our play.
