Rob Font goes into this fight as the bookie’s favourite to win, but Marlon Vera has built a career on defying the odds. Who will pick up the win and take that next step towards title contention? Let’s see what the LowKickMMA staff have to say:

LowKick MMA Staff Predictions for Rob Font vs. Marlon Vera

Frank Bonada

Rob Font and Marlon Vera are elite bantamweights who both have the potential to be future title challengers, regardless of how this bout plays out. However, in this fight, I believe that the jab of Font will be the great equalizer. Vera will not have an answer to the preferred strike of Font, especially in the mid-range. This, paired with Font’s exceptional ability to build off the jab, makes it hard to predict any outcome than a Rob Font victory, most likely by decision due to Vera’s toughness.

If you’re in agreement, then syndicate casino reviews is the ideal platform to place some money on the New England Cartel prospect.

Prediction: Rob Font

Ross Markey

Top-level competition between both Rob Font and Marlon Vera is something both men share in abundance – particularly in the last 24 months, with varying degrees of success. Font, who to the consensus, appears to have the higher ceiling when compared with Ecuador native, Vera, tipped to eventually challenge for bantamweight gold despite his December falter against common-foe, Jose Aldo. Font’s ability to set a pace quite early and consistently over the course of five rounds, mixed with his boxing accuracy gives him my nod in the UFC Vegas 53 headliner.

Prediction: Rob Font

Lewis Simpson

I’m expecting a banger between Font and Vera. Both men are capable of leaving victorious. However, I’m predicting Font to drag this fight into deep waters and to walk away with a hard-fought, gritty win. Font’s toughness and output have always been a key factor in his success. If you look at both men’s recent losses to Jose Aldo, Font was able to show some glimmers of hope and actually out-scored Aldo in significant strikes. Vera, on the other hand, was outclassed on the feet by Aldo in the first and dominated in the third by Aldo’s grappling credentials. Vera was also losing to Frankie Edgar before scoring the knockout. Due to Vera being so hot and cold, I’m going with Font’s consistently and output to do the damage.

Prediction: Rob Font

Patrick Post

I expect Rob Font to get the victory, think his striking is better than Vera’a and he’ll be able to work behind his jab well to keep ‘Chito’ out at range, see him winning via decision.

Murdo Todd

Rob Font by unanimous decision.

UFC Vegas 52 features a women’s strawweight main event between two hard-hitting contenders in Jessica Andrade vs. Amanda Lemos.

A co-main event features MMA legend Clay Guida, who faces rising prospect Claudio Puelles, whilst top-ranked flyweights Manel Kape and Su Mudaerji throw down on the undercard. Maycee Barber vs. Montana De La Ros, Alexandr Romanov vs. Chase Sherman, and Charles Jourdain vs. Lando Vannata all also bear keeping an eye out for.

Join LowKickMMA as we preview, predict, and hopefully win some money betting on UFC Fight Night: Andrade vs. Lemos.

Jessica Andrade vs. Amanda Lemos

In the main event spot, former strawweight champion Jessica Andrade takes on rising contender Amanda Lemos. These two fighters may well be the hardest hitters in the entire division, both possessing a natural power not often associated with strawweights.

The main difference between them is experience. Andrade holds a record of 22-9, whilst Lemos sits at 11-1-1, despite being four years older than her opponent. Admitedly, Lemos does have a height and reach advantage, but the consistently high quality level of competition that Andrade has been facing will likely cancel this out.

We will be taking Andrade to win at her ML for this fight, where she currently sits at around -190 for most betting online sites.

Maycee Barber vs. Montana De La Rosa

Maycee Barber has not quite lived up to the massive prospect label she was given upon signing for the UFC. Her eight fight winning streak was snapped in 2020, as Roxanne Modefferi caused a massive upset, defeating ‘The Future’ via unanimous decision at UFC 246. A follow up loss to Alexa Grasso further quelled Barber’s hype train. Even her most recent win over Miranda Maverick was shrouded in controversy, with many disputing the judges scorecards.

However, with this all being said, Maycee Barber is still an extremely talented fighter that has likely benefited hugely from having to overcome such adversity. This weekend she takes on Monatan De La Rosa, a talented grappler with lethal submission skills.

We are going to be taking Baber’s ML, at around -190. She will have a massive advantage on the feet, and only gets stronger the longer the fight plays out. However, should you wish to hedge, De La Rosa’s submission prop at around +700 could well be worth a sprinkle, with Barber’s weakest area unedeibly being her ground game.

Manel Kape vs. Su Mudaerji

This flyweight scrap promises fireworks between two of the most dynamic fighters in the division. Similar to Barber, Manel Kape has not quite lived up to the hype. However, his past two fights have been an emphatic return to form, with a flying knee KO over Ode Osbourne, and a vicious round one stoppage again Zhalgus Zhumagulov.

Su Mudaerji is a talent, there’s no two ways about it. But so is Kape, and his striking is of such a high level that even a fighter Mudaerji’s level will struggle to keep up with him.

We are going with Kape’s ML, which stands at around -150. For prop hunters, Kape by KO is currently around +250 on most online betting sites, which could be worth a stab.

Parlay Pieces

There are also several heavy favorites on this card that are likely worth parlaying together. Alexandr Romanov take on Chase Sherman, who is stepping up on short notice. Romanov is a heavy favorite with reason, as his run with the UFC has entirely dominant so far. He becomes the first paraly piece.

Next is Tyson Pedro, who takes on Ike Villaneuva. Pedro has been out for some time, but he returns to face an opponent who has struggled to consistently compete against UFC level opposition. Pedro may be on a two fight losing streak, but he still holds win over Paul Craig and Khalil Rountree. We will take Pedro as the second parlay option.

In the opening fight of the night, Irish prospect Dean Barry will face off against Mike Jackson. This one is simple enough, Barry is a 4-1 knockout artist who has finished all four of his victories, whilst Jackson has a pro record of 0-1-1. Fans may remember Jackson from his win over CM Punk, that was later overturned to a No Contest. This is clearly a fight designed to make Barry look good, and we fully expect him to do exactly that. Barry by KO becomes our third and final parlay piece.

UFC Fight Night: Luque vs. Muhammad 2 Betting Preview

At UFC Fight Night: Luque vs. Muhammad, the world’s top MMA promotion returns to the Apex Arena with a card headlined by an electric welterweight rematch between two of the division’s stand-out fighters. Whilst the undercard may not be as stacked as some of the more recent Fight Night cards, there are still a number […]

Whilst the undercard may not be as stacked as some of the more recent Fight Night cards, there are still a number of intriguing matchups that have a lot of value to sharp-eyed bettors.

Join LowKickMMA as we preview, predict, and hopefully win some money betting on UFC Fight Night: Luque vs. Muhammad.

Vicente Luque vs. Belal Muhammad 2

A rematch five years in the making see’s top-ranked welterweights Vicente Luque and Belal Muhammad once again lock horns, this time in the main event slot.

Vicente Luque, who came up on top in their first fight, is once again the favorite. Betway currently has him priced at 1.57, whilst Muhammad sits as a 2.40 underdog.

Belal has improved exponentially since the first fight, but it is hard to overlook the finishing ability of Luque. We are going to go with Luque ITD at a 2.05 betting line.

Caio Borralho vs. Gadzhi Omargadzhiev

Two contender series alumni both make their UFC debuts in this middleweight matchup. As a result, there is somewhat more limited tape to study than usual.

However, Omargadzhiev’s wrestling prowess should be enough to see him through in this one. Borralho loves to embrace the grappling side of things, quite often to varying degrees of success. Should the fight go the floor, even if it is by Borralho’s efforts, expect Omargadzhiev to quickly take control and begin to dominate the fight.

We will take Omargadzhiev’s ML at 1.72.

Pat Sabatini vs. TJ Laramie

Pat Sabatini is a heavy favorite in this fight and with good reason. Currently undefeated in the UFC, Sabatini has picked up extremely convincing wins so far against the likes of Tucker Lutz, Jammall Emmers and Tristan Connelly.

Sabatini takes on TJ Laramie, who is stepping up on short notice to face Sabatini. Laramie is currently 0-1 inside the UFC, having been submitted by Darrick Minner in his debut.

Due to his heavy favorite status (1.22 on Betway), there is little logic to take Sabatini as a single bet, but he should be a solid piece of your UFC Fight Night: Luque vs. Muhammad parlay.

Drakkar Klose vs. Brandon Jenkins

Another heavy favorite who is a logical addition to your parlays would be Drakkar Klose. Curretnly sitting as a 1.18 favorite to win, he takes on Brandon Jenkins who is looking to pick up his first wins inside the UFC.

Klose has proven on numerous occasions that he is capable of competing with some of the divisions very best, having overcome the likes of Bobby Green, Lando Vannata and Marc Diakiese. Jenkins simply hasn’t fought this level of competition yet. As a result, we will predict Klose to win comfortably in this fight.

A Parlay with Drakkar Klose, Pat Sabatini, and Mounir Lazzez (who also takes on a short notice opponent) will give you a plus money 2.21 bet.

Chael Sonnen: Nick Diaz vs Kevin Holland targeted for 2022

Chael Sonnen spoke in an episode of Beyond the Fight yesterday and announced that the UFC is targeting a welterweight match-up between Nick Diaz and Kevin Holland. Kevin Holland enjoyed a great 2020 going 5-0 with all apart from one of those victories coming inside the distance. However, 2021 didn’t show Holland the same fortune […]

Chael Sonnen spoke in an episode of Beyond the Fight yesterday and announced that the UFC is targeting a welterweight match-up between Nick Diaz and Kevin Holland.

Kevin Holland enjoyed a great 2020 going 5-0 with all apart from one of those victories coming inside the distance.

However, 2021 didn’t show Holland the same fortune as he would go 0-2 with decision losses coming against Derek Brunson and Marvin Vettori, followed up by a no-contest due to an accidental headbutt in his match up with Kyle Daukaus.

The Brunson and Vettori fights highlighted a wrestling weakness for Holland and may have played into his decision to now drop down to welterweight.

Diaz, who needs no introduction, last stepped inside the octagon back at UFC 266 where he would lose inside the distance to Robbie Lawler. Many fans were unsure of what the next move would be for Diaz as he looked like a shell of his former self last time out, but it does appear Stockton fighter isn’t quite done yet.

Now according to Chael Sonnen, the two men are set to face it out within the welterweight division.

“Tommy from the Bronx just reached out to me. Told me something. I said, ‘Is this public?’ And he said you can share it. It had something to do with Nick Diaz vs. Kevin Holland.

“A little bit surprised by it, only because Nick Diaz is such a megastar. But what do you do with him? Nick Diaz, at all times, is one win away from being in a main event. He was last time when he fought Robbie Lawler… Kevin is gonna change weight classes down to 170 pounds, so we’ve been told. Nick’s still under contract and he wants to do something, and everyone wants to see him do it. So, you start matching him up very cleverly… I get it. I’m in.” (Transcribed by BJPenn.com)

Chael Sonnen Is A Big Fan Kevin Holland

Chael Sonnen would go on to praise Holland during this episode and speak on the potential he has as a competitor inside the UFC.

“Nobody was on a trajectory like Kevin Holland, this year got a little bit off course, but last year at this exact same time you couldn’t read anything about MMA without reading about Kevin Holland, he had five fights, he did them all in a row, he won them all, he was finishing guys including Jacare.

“Kevin Holland started fighting some really good guys like Marvin Vettori, you know some absolute studs, but I also never saw Kevin Holland lose a fight I saw him lose positions and I saw him lose the same positions.

“It’s one of these things you can’t write off Kevin Holland.”

Although nothing has been confirmed yet, who would you see leaving the octagon as a winner if Kevin Holland and Nick Diaz decide to throw down?

Michael Bisping: Conor McGregor Fighting For A Title ‘Wouldn’t Be The Craziest Thing’

Conor McGregor is arguably the biggest star in combat sports and given this it’s no surprise we have seen McGregor gain preferential treatment. McGregor will be hoping to use his stardom to his favour by lining up a UFC lightweight title shot on his return. Many people believe McGregor shouldn’t be able to jump the […]

Many people believe McGregor shouldn’t be able to jump the queue past everyone in the division and one those of people who share this is opinion is former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping.

Bisping spoke on his ‘Believe You Me’ podcast about exactly why McGregor isn’t deserving to be in that position.

““Yeah, McGregor, title fight next. I don’t know, maybe he could. It wouldn’t be the craziest thing to ever happen, let’s be honest, the man is a f***ing mega-star so maybe… I doubt it, I doubt it very much but obviously I assume it was just a tweet. But you can’t look at that like it’s gospel. Obviously, that’s what Conor McGregor wants… it’s not gonna happen, but if it does happen, it wouldn’t blow my mind either. The guy has lost three of the last four I believe, so there’s no way the guy is coming back for a title shot.” (Transcribed by Sportskeeda)

There is no questioning the appeal Conor McGregor brings with him however given his recent outings to the octagon for the most part not going his way and given how active the rest of the lightweight division is currently it is very unlikely we see McGregor straight back into a title matchup.

However, convincing McGregor of that himself is going to be a lot harder.

The former two-division champion posted to social media earlier this month declaring he will be fighting whoever is holding the lightweight strap on his return. Here’s what McGregor had to say.

“Hi lads, here goes… clicks and the like. Your boss and what not. The Mac. Santy Claus. I’m facing whoever the f*ck has that LW title next. Deal with it. Take off your goggles and mark the trilogy “unfinished”. Deal with that too. The rest mentioned, after this. Deal. With. It.”

What is next for Conor McGregor?

McGregor has lost three of his last four outings to the octagon and would certainly need to secure at least one win back in the division to be pushing on for a title shot. One option is the fourth matchup with Dustin Poirier. If Poirier can get past Charles Oliveira at UFC 269, and McGregor can get a win on his return, many fans will be calling to see those two fighters step inside the octagon again.

Another option for McGregor is the Nate Diaz trilogy, Diaz gave McGregor his first loss inside the UFC, which McGregor was quick to rectify after he was able to beat Diaz in the rematch. It only seems right that these two men finish off what they started with a final bout in the trilogy.

Who do you want to see Conor McGregor fight on his return?

UFC Vegas 32 Betting Preview

UFC Vegas 32 takes place this weekend behind closed doors at the APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the main event, we have an exciting bantamweight match-up that we’re almost looking forward to more than our next game of 3 card poker online. Cory Sandhagen and TJ Dillashaw will face off over five rounds to […]

Cory Sandhagen and TJ Dillashaw will face off over five rounds to decide who is next line for a shot at the winner of Aljamain Sterling vs. Petr Yan II. The 135lb duo were originally set to square off in May but an injury to the former champion pushed this fight back a couple of months. UFC Vegas 31 boasts a strong undercard that promises to deliver plenty of big moments.

Join LowKickMMA as we preview, predict, and hopefully win some money betting on the UFC Vegas 32 main event and a selection of its undercard fights.

Cory Sandhagen vs. TJ Dillashaw

This is such a fun match-up with definite title implications. Cory Sandhagen has been in career-best form since falling short against Aljamain Sterling last year. The 29-year-old picked up successive Knockout of the Year contenders over Marlon Moraes and Frankie Edgar. He understandably enters the UFC Vegas 32 main even the favourite at -175. TJ Dillashaw will fight for the first time in more than two years after serving a lengthy suspension for PED use. The former 135lb king jumps straight back into deep water and the bookmakers aren’t totally writing him off at +150. We just have to back Sandhagen in this fight. Even a prime version of Dillashaw would struggle with the length and shot selection of ‘The Sandman’. This 35-year-old, off the couch and off the drugs version of Dillashaw is going to struggle. We’ll be backing Sandhagen to get the win that could potentially come by stoppage.

Aspen Ladd vs. Macy Chiasson

In the UFC Vegas 32 co-main event we will see another long lay-off come to an end. Aspen Ladd has been sidelined since December 2019 with injury issues. The bantamweight contender returns to the Octagon and should propel herself back into title contention against Macy Chiasson. We’ll be backing Ladd to emerge victorious despite and ring rust at odds of -175. If you fancy Chiasson to spring the upset, she’s priced at +150.

Miranda Maverick vs. Maycee Barber

Before we get into breaking down this fight, let’s just take a moment to give the UFC matchmakers props. What a fight! Miranda Maverick and Maycee Barber are two of the brightest prospects in WMMA. Maverick has looked sensational since joining the UFC. The former Invicta champion has form on her side and for that reason is the -150 favourite in this fight. Barber is on a two-fight skid but showed signs of promise in her most recent defeat against Alex Grasso. We think she might just cause a slight upset and hand Maverick her first UFC loss at odds of +125.

Mickey Gall vs. Jordan Williams

Opening up the UFC Vegas 32 main card we have a welterweight match-up between Mickey Gall and Jordan Williams. Gall has never really been able to capitalize on big-name wins over CM Punk and Sage Northcutt. The 29-year-old two most recent losses came against Mike Perry and Diego Sanchez who really haven’t look anywhere near their prime in recent years. For that reason, we think the bookmakers are right to make him the -163 underdog against Williams. The Contender Series veteran showed all the heart in his UFC debut to go the three rounds with Nassourdine Imavov at middleweight. Williams has now made a smart move down to welterweight and we think it’ll pay off when he makes good on his -188 favourite tag at UFC Vegas 32.
