UFC Fight Night 193: Misha Cirkunov vs. Krzysztof Jotko odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 193 odds and lines between Misha Cirkunov vs. Krzysztof Jotko, with MMA picks, tips and predictions.

In a middleweight bout on the main card, Misha Cirkunov meets Krzysztof Jotko at UFC Fight Night 193 – also known as UFC Vegas 38 – at the UFC’s APEX Facility in Las Vegas. Below, we analyze the UFC Fight Night 193: Cirkunov vs. Jotko odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

The card can be viewed on ESPN+ with the prelims at 4 p.m. ET and the main card at 7 p.m. ET.

Cirkunov was knocked out in the first round last time out March 13 against Ryan Spann. He enters this bout with just two victories in his last six fights, with both wins by submission and each of the four setbacks via KO/TKO.

Jotko is also looking to bounce back after a unanimous-decision loss to Sean Strickland his last time out May 1. Each of his last four bouts has gone the distance, with three victories.

UFC Fight Night 193 Cirkunov vs. Jotko: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Records: Cirkunov (15-6-0) | Jotko (22-5-0)

Fight result (2-way line or money line)

I really like JOTKO (-145) to bounce back from his unanimous-decision loss last time out, but don’t expect it to be short. He has ended up going the distance in each of his last four fights, six of his past eight, and 10 of his 14 bouts since arriving at the UFC level.

As such, play JOTKO ON POINTS (+235) for the chance to more than double up.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 1.5 ROUNDS (-180) is one of the best bets on the board. It might be a little on the expensive side, but given Jotko’s last four fights this one figures to go rather long. In fact, seven of his last eight fights would have won this prop.

Play YES: WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE? (+130) for an even better value. While each of Cirkunov’s last 10 fights has finished inside the distance Jotko is going to take him all the way.

UFC Fight Night 193: Alex Oliveira vs. Niko Price odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 193 odds and lines between Alex Oliveira vs. Niko Price, with MMA picks, tips and predictions.

In a welterweight bout on the main card, Alex Oliveira meets Miko Price at UFC Fight Night 193 – also known as UFC Vegas 38 – at the UFC’s APEX Facility in Las Vegas. Below, we analyze the UFC Fight Night 193: Oliveira vs. Price odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

The card can be viewed on ESPN+ with the prelims at 4 p.m. ET and the main card at 7 p.m. ET.

The 33-year-old Brazilian Oliveira will be looking to avoid the mat, as his last two fights against Shavkat Rakhmonov and Randy Brown have been losses via submission. Both of those losses came in the first round, and he is just 2-5 across his last seven bouts.

Price is 0-2 with one no-contest across his last three outings. His last victory was a KO/TKO victory against James Vick in the first round Oct. 12, 2019. While each of his last two bouts have gone the distance the previous nine resulted in stoppages.

  • Fight result (2-way line): Oliveira +150 (bet $100 to win $150) | Price -200 (bet $200 to win $100)
  • Over/Under: 1.5 rounds (Over -155 | Under +112)

UFC Fight Night 193 Oliveira vs. Price: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Records: Oliveira (22-10-1) | Price (14-5-0)

Fight result (2-way line or money line)

Price (-200) is just a little too expensive for my liking, costing you two times your potential return.

Oliveira is no pushover and could take this one all the way if he can avoid going to the mat. “Cowboy” has three losses via submission across his last seven fights, so he will not want to get into a ground and pound type fight.

AVOID, and get more specific instead.

Over/Under (O/U)

Playing OVER 1.5 ROUNDS (-155) is a good bet. These two experienced fighters aren’t going to get caught early with a kill shot. They’ll take time to feel each other out.

I don’t believe it will go the distance, however, so NO: WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE? (-220) is the play.

As mentioned, get specific and play a two-round block. PRICE TO WIN IN ROUND 2 (+440) and PRICE TO WIN IN ROUND 3 (+900) are solid plays. Yes, you’ll lose one of them if he wins in Round 2 or 3, but you would still be well ahead.

UFC Fight Night 193: Kevin Holland vs. Kyle Daukaus odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 193 odds and lines between Kevin Holland vs. Kyle Daukaus, with MMA picks, tips and predictions.

In a middleweight bout on the main card, Kevin Holland meets Kyle Daukaus at UFC Fight Night 193 – also known as UFC Vegas 38 – at the UFC’s APEX Facility in Las Vegas. Below, we analyze the UFC Fight Night 193: Holland vs. Daukaus odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

The card can be viewed on ESPN+ with the prelims at 4 p.m. ET and the main card at 7 p.m. ET.

Holland holds a five-inch reach advantage over his southpaw counterpart. He also holds a 3.74-to-3.23 significant strikes landed per minute advantage.

He has lost back-to-back unanimous-decisions to Derek Brunson and Marvin Vettori, both in main event fights. Three of his last five fights have gone the distance.

Daukaus will be able to find an advantage if he can get this fight to the canvas. He has a 1.75 to 0.92 takedown advantage, and a 1.25 to 0.55 submission average advantage.

He is coming off a unanimous-decision loss to Phil Hawes and is 1-2 since making his UFC debut June 27, 2020. All three of his fights with the company have ended up needing the help of the judges to decide a winner.

UFC Fight Night 193 Holland vs. Daukaus: Odds and lines

Odds via Tipico Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 9:08 a.m. ET.

  • Fight result (2-way line): Holland -180 (bet $180 to win $100) | Daukaus +140 (bet $100 to win $140)
  • Over/Under: 2.5 rounds (Over -165 | Under +120)

UFC Fight Night 193 Holland vs. Daukaus: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Records: Holland (21-7-0) | Daukaus (10-2-0)

Fight result (2-way line or money line)

HOLLAND (-180) is right at my personal limit for a money line play, but he is a strong play. He holds the reach advantage, and as long as he can keep this fight upright he is going to get the job done.

Daukaus is a beast on the mat, although Holland does have a pair of submission wins at the UFC level that show he can get it done on the canvas if push comes to shove.

Over/Under (O/U)

Playing YES (-145): WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE? is the way to go. Three of Holland’s last five fights have gone the distance, while Daukaus hasn’t had a fight finish inside the distance since arriving at the UFC level.

As such, I like HOLLAND ON POINTS (+195) for the method of victory, giving you a good chance to nearly double up if he can win by wowing the judges.

UFC Fight Night 193: Thiago Santos vs. Johnny Walker odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 193 odds and lines between Thiago Santos vs. Johnny Walker, with MMA picks, tips and predictions.

In a light heavyweight bout in the main event, Thiago Santos meets Johnny Walker at UFC Fight Night 193 – also known as UFC Vegas 38 – at the UFC’s APEX Facility in Las Vegas. Below, we analyze the UFC Fight Night 193: Santos vs. Walker odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

The card can be viewed on ESPN+ with the prelims at 4 p.m. ET, and the main card at 7 p.m. ET.

Santos enters on a three-bout losing skid, but there is no shame in losing to Jon Jones, Glover Teixeira or Aleksandar Rakic. Two of those setbacks were by decision. His last victory came against Jan Blachowicz, a KO/TKO 39 seconds into the third round in a Fight Night main event Feb. 23, 2019.

Walker bounced back from losses to Corey Anderson and Nikita Krylov, posting a first-round KO/TKO against Ryan Spann last time out on Sept. 19, 2020. Injuries have kept him sidelined since that last outing.

Walker has a 6-inch reach advantage and 4-inch height advantage. He also has a 4.41-to-4.27 significant strikes landed per minute advantage and 1.20-to-0.09 submission average lead.

UFC Fight Night 193 Santos vs. Walker: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Records: Santos (21-9-0) | Walker (18-5-0)

Fight result (2-way line or money line)

WALKER (+120) is a solid underdog in his return after a year-long wait.

He stands taller and holds a huge reach advantage which will help him keep Santos at a distance. When necessary he can also take care of business on the ground, although it’s been a while since that has been needed.

Walker has had a KO/TKO end five of his six fights at the UFC level, winning four of those bouts. As such, WALKER BY TKO/KO (+180) for method of victory is also a solid play.

Over/Under (O/U)

You can’t play No (-500): Will the fight go the distance?, as that is just too expensive with very little return.

Instead, play OVER 1.5 ROUNDS (-113), as we should be able to get midway through the second round before a winner is decided. However, don’t expect it to go much longer than that.

As such, play a three-round block on WALKER IN ROUND 2 (+850), WALKER IN ROUND 3 (+1500) and WALKER IN ROUND 4 (+2500). If he wins in Rounds 2-4, yes, you’ll lose two of those ends, but you’ll still be well in the black.
