UFC Fight Night 191 Pimblett vs. Vendramini: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Records: Pimblett (16-3-0) | Vendramini (9-2-0)
Fight result (2-way line or money line)
PIMBLETT (-160) is a solid play in his UFC debut as he looks to push past the disappointing Vendramini (+125). Two of Pimblett’s past three victories have been by way of submission with the rear-naked choke his speciality.
Take PIMBLETT BY SUBMISSION (+300) lightly for a chance to triple up.
Over/Under (O/U)
Playing NO (-170): WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE? is a little expensive but a good play in this one. Pimblett has had stoppages in three of his past four fights while just one of Vendramini’s 11 professional bouts have needed the assistance of the judges. UNDER 2.5 ROUNDS (-133) is a worthwhile play, too.
