UFC Vegas 13 Odds and Predictions
Headlined by former light heavyweight title challengers Thiago Santos and Glover Tiexiera, each one win from another shot at glory, UFC Vegas 13 also presents intriguing undercard action. With the event’s two main fights detailed in recent W&W articles, here’s a look at odds and predictions for the night's remaining contests.
Main card fight three pits middleweight prospects Ian Heinisch and Brendan Allen in direct combat. Slated at pick em’ odds, (-110) each man holds promising cage attributes which could grant victory. However, Allen (3-0 UFC) is the more refined striker and submission grappler against powerhouse wrestler Heinisch. Look for Allen to maintain his unbeaten Octagon record via grinding decision Saturday.
Winner: Brendan Allen
Matchup number four has Alexandr Romanov holding heavy -335 odds vs. Marcos Rogerio +275. Take the smaller heavyweight Romanov to finish yet another opponent inside distance.
Winner: Alexandr Romanov
The final main card bout sees female Straweights Claudia Gadelha (+115) and Yan Xiaonan (-135) share Octagon space while gunning for higher ranking. Veteran Gadelha came painfully close to UFC gold in 2016. However, on the wrong side of 30, “Claudinha” is a bit overmatched by UFC unbeaten (5-0) Xiaonan.
Expect the spirited Yan to continue her march toward championship stakes this weekend.
Winner: Yan Xiaonan
