Hello everyone and welcome back for another week of fights. As the UFC gets ready to invade Australia, we were left licking our wounds last week with multiple fights, not working for us. This week, we’ll be back to our winning ways, like our DFS Plays last week, which all hit for cash. In fact, one of the lineups mentioned on the Fight Club of Pain last week was literally a flip of two fighters, in the same fight, from winning 1000$. So in essence, I broke even in the betting side while going 8-0 for DFS lineups, which put us ahead for the week. That being said, let’s get back to dominating the sportsbooks as we bring the pain to our competition.
Have a great day, everyone, and may the fights be with you.
Jonathan Micallef vs. Themba Gorimba
Our first fight that we’re covering this week is between Jonathan Micallef and Themba Gorimba. This fight is most likely going over, which the distance yes prop is currently +128. So I’m going to hit that and parlay it with Micallef’s moneyline for ‐250, for a total odds of +202. For some finishing action, both fighters have a submission arsenal, so I’m going to hit that prop at +150, and Micallef’s knockout plus submission at +120.
Colby Thickness vs. Vince Morales
Next up is going to be a banger between Colby Thickness and Vince Morales. Here’s another fight that is going over, which means I’ll be hitting the distance yes prop at -220. Of course I’m going to combine that with Thickness’s moneyline at -132, for a parlay of +117. I also like Thickness’s round three win or decision at +110, for a little finishing action combined with a hedge for a decision. However, you know I love finishes, so the knockout prop at +500 is too tempting to pass up.
Jacob Malkoun vs. Gerald Meerschaert
Gerald Meerschaert will be facing Jacob Malkoun on Saturday, which is going to be the first fight in this article, that’s a certified murder on paper. In his last six fights, GM3 has been knocked out once, went the distance once, and has been submitted four times. So you know that Malkoun is going to win this match, which has horrible odds of course. That being said, let’s hit Malkoun’s first and second ring win at -120, along with his knockout and submission at -195. Even the no distance prop at -230 to be safe or hedge yourself.
Tai Tuivasa vs. Louie Sutherland
Here’s another banger that looks to be over fast as Tai Tuivasa takes on Louie Sutherland, in what should be over fast. The no distance prop is currently -370, which isn’t the best but both of these fighters can finish this fight. Tuivasa loves to do shoe-ies after a finish, so let’s play the knockout prop for both fighters at -230. Tuivasa is my pick of course, and I’ll be playing his knockout and points for -195, so I’m covered with a finish, plus distance.
Shamil Gaziev vs. Brando Pericic
For our last fight, we’ll be covering Shamil Gaziev versus Brando Pericic, who is only a slight favorite against Gaziev. This fight is another one that doesn’t have the best of odds, but I was able to find some that should win us money. The no distance prop is -850, so we’re not paying that of course. The under 1.5 total rounds prop isn’t bad at -240, but could be better. However, Pericic is my pick and his first and second round knockout is +105, which I love. Even Pericic’s first and second round win is -105, but I don’t see him going for a submission. For action on both fighter’s, head to the specials section and play Gaziev by submission with Pericic by knockout, for a -185.
