UFC Fight Night 192 Tsarukyan vs. Giagos: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Records: Tsarukyan (16-2-0) | Giagos (19-8-0)
Fight result (2-way line or money line)
GIAGOS (+520) is worth playing lightly for a chance to more than multiply your initial wager by five times.
Tsarukyan (-700) is a tremendous fighter and striker. But he has no stoppages in his four fights at the UFC level, and he could easily be upended. Giagos has won four of his past five fights, and he has wowed the judges for the unanimous-decision win three times.
Over/Under (O/U)
YES (-180): WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE? is too hard to pass up. Neither of these fighters have been able to get stoppages lately, with just one fight finishing inside the distance in the past five for Giagos and four straight bouts going the distance for Tsarukyan.
In addition, play GIAGOS ON POINTS (+1100) for a value play. It’s just too hard to pass up, but go lightly.
