UFC 263 Evloev vs. Dawodu: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Records: Evloev 14-0-0 | Dawodu 12-1-1

Fight result (2-way line or money line)

Evloev (-250), the heavy favorite, has won each of his four fights since making his UFC debut. All four of the victories have ended up going the distance, including a split-decision win over Nik Lentz last time out at UFC 257.

DAWODU (+195) is a better value with a chance to nearly double up. He has won each of his past five bouts, with four going the distance, after losing by submission in his UFC debut March 17, 2018. His last fight was a split-decision win over Zubaira Tukhugov at UFC 253.

Over/Under (O/U)

The Over/Under on the total number of rounds is a tad bit expensive, but OVER 2.5 ROUNDS (-250) is the way to go. The best bet is YES (-225): WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE? It seems like a certainty based upon both fighters and their lack of ability to finish since arriving at the UFC level.

The best bet, and biggest chance to win money in this bout, is playing DAWODU ON POINTS (+375). When he pulls the upset, it will be thanks to the judges and their decision, not due to a stoppage.
