Max Holloway vs Charles Oliveira <\/div>\n
Tip: Charles Oliveira By KO\/TKO @ $8.00 <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

There are few fight fans that\u00a0aren\u2019t\u00a0Max Holloway fans.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And they were surely converted when he pointed to the ground in the dying seconds of his BMF title fight against Justin\u00a0Gaethje\u00a0and knocked his opponent out with seconds on the clock.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t\u00a0forget he was winning the fight and there was no need.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But Max Holloway is a man who takes his legacy in the sport very seriously and that is why he continues to fight at Lightweight against the\u00a0very best.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He beat\u00a0Gaethje\u00a0and Poirier and now he meets the other dominant lightweight of the last decade.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Charles Oliveira is nearing the end of his\u00a0career\u00a0but he gets his chance to stamp his legacy on the sport yet again.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

His submission record speaks for itself but in the last few years he has proven that he has the ability to end the fight with his hands and he meets an opponent who was seemingly impossible to knock out.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The gap in the\u00a0head to head\u00a0market has\u00a0opened up\u00a0the closer we have gotten to the\u00a0fight\u00a0which leaves a betting opportunity in my opinion.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If Oliveira is to win the\u00a0fight\u00a0he has to knock Holloway out and that\u2019s the way I\u2019m playing the main event.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Caio Borralho vs Reinier de Ridder <\/div>\n
Tip: Reinier de Ridder To Win @ $3.10 <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

17 wins from 20 pro career fights including his first seven in the UFC has Caio\u00a0Borralho\u00a0at the top end of the Middleweight rankings.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

His momentum was\u00a0somewhat halted\u00a0by\u00a0Naaourine\u00a0Imavov\u00a0September 2025 when he lost a five round\u00a0decision\u00a0but he can get his title aspirations back on track with a win in the co-main event.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Former One Championship two weight division champion Reinier de Ridder was thrown straight into the deep end when he entered the UFC ad he handled it well.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He won his first four fights including\u00a0very dangerous\u00a0opponents that included Kevin Holland, Rob\u00a0Whittaker\u00a0and Bo Nickal.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Those fights proved he could strike with the best in the division and at the current price he\u00a0represents\u00a0great value\u00a0in this\u00a0head to head\u00a0match up.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rob Font vs Raul Rosas jnr <\/div>\n
Tip: Raul Rosas jnr by KO\/TKO or Submission. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

Another excellent fight on the main card by the UFC matchmakers in the bantamweight division.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rov\u00a0Font is a veteran of the division who has served as a gatekeeper for many\u00a0up and coming\u00a0fighters in the past despite never fighting for a title himself.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Raul Rosas\u00a0jnr\u00a0became the youngest ever UFC fighter when he won a contract through Dana White\u2019s Contender Series in 2022 and has looked impressive ever since.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He stumbled with a loss early\u00a0on\u00a0but he has proven himself one of the most exciting young fighters in the sport and brings in a\u00a0four fight\u00a0win streak in his biggest challenge to date.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no doubt that grappling is where he\u00a0excels\u00a0but his striking gets better every\u00a0time\u00a0he enters the octagon.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I think he can get a finish.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
