UFC Fight Night 199 Lewis vs. Daukaus: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Records: Lewis (25-8-0) | Daukaus (12-3-0)
Fight result (2-way line or money line)
LEWIS (+117), a.k.a. “The Black Beast”, is looking to work his way back into position for a title shot. He can impress with a victory as he enters as a slight underdog against the knockout machine Daukaus.
Daukaus has yet to suffer a loss at the UFC level but has yet to face a top-tier fighter at the top of their game. Lewis is a patient, heavy-hitting opponent with a three-inch reach advantage who will deliver the first loss of Daukaus’ career.
Over/Under (O/U)
Play a two-round block of LEWIS TO WIN IN ROUND 2 (+900) and LEWIS TO WIN IN ROUND 3 (+2000) for a potentially nice payday. Yes, you will lose one of the ends, but you’ll be very much in the black if Lewis is able to get the finish in in the second or third round.
