Betting Odds

And closing in on his first headliner under the promotional banner, unbeaten heavyweight finisher, Shamil Gaziev is also closing as a significant betting favorite to topple Suriname knockout ace, Jairzinho Rozenstruik – and continue his route through the heavyweight ranks with what would come as his most high-profile win to date.

Riding an unbeaten record spanning the course of 12 fights into his first main event tilt at UFC Vegas 87 this weekend, Dagestan-born contender, Gaziev earned his way to a spot on Dana White’s Contender Series with roughshod runs through contenders under the banner of Middle Eastern organization, Brave CF.

And turning in a victory over Greg Velasco with a first round rear-naked choke win on DWCS late last year, Bahrain-based upstart, Gaziev made his promotional bow at UFC 296 in December – landing a second round TKO win over Martin Buday. 

Fast-tracked to a promotional main event, ahead of UFC Vegas 87, Shamil Gaziev is currently listed as an impressive -124 betting favorite over at https://pickdawgz.com/mma-picks/ – with perennial contender, Jaizinho Rozenstruik a current betting underdog as high as +124.

Himself looking for a certain uptake in promotional form, former top-challenger, Rozenstruik has turned in a lacklustre 1-3 record in his last four most recent fights – with his sole win in that timeframe coming in the form of a first round knockout of Chris Daukaus inside just 23-seconds.

During his Octagon tenure, Suriname kickboxer, Rozenstruik has, however, landed other notable wins over the likes of Alistair Overeem, Andre Arlovski, former champion, Junior dos Santos, and a main event stoppage of Augusto Sakai. 

Also of note on the main card – unbeaten bantamweight contender, Umar Nurmagomedov makes his long-anticipated return in a fight against short-notice replacement, Bekzat Almakhan.

Apparently struggling in his bid to find a willing dance partner to welcome him back to active competition, Nurmagomedov was forced from a high-profile main event clash atop a ‘Fight Night’ billed card against former interim championship challenger, Cory Sandhagen last year.

Boasting an impressive 16-0 professional record, Nurmagomedov is currently closing as high as a -1,200 betting favorite to beat promotional newcomer, Almakhan – with many fans and punters seeing the inclusion of the Russian into a parlay play as a must for this event.

Teased with the prospect of a flyweight title fight awaiting him with success against kingpin, Alexandre Pantoja at UFC 301 as soon as May, unbeaten star, Muhammaed Mokaev takes on former title challenger, Alex Perez on the card – in a high-profile showcase.

Closing the line as a betting favorite ahead of fight night, Mokaev can be backed as high as -340 to best the returning Perez in this weekend’s UFC Vegas 87 main card pairing – as he rides wins over Cody Durden, Charles Johnson, Malcolm Gordon, Jafel Filho, and former title challenger, Tim Elliott into his return. 

Two more interesting main card parlay plays for punters could be viewed in the form of the card’s opener as Matt Schnell takes on Steve Erceg, while the returning, Tyson Pedro co-headlines against Vitor Petrino. 

Schnell is currently available as high as +340 as a betting underdog to beat the returning, Erceg, while Australian veteran, Pedro is a current +260 betting underdog himself to beat Petrino.
