How the public is betting Brendan Allen vs. Kyle Daukaus

Ian Heinisch might have originally been Brendan Allen’s scheduled opponent, but replacement and undefeated Kyle Daukaus is still getting some of the action.

Allen is 14-3 in MMA, and 13 of his 14 victories have come via stoppage. He averages just 2.24 strikes per minute, but also 2.24 takedowns per 15 minutes of octagon time.

Daukaus is 9-0 and the Philadelphian is taking on enough money to keep the odds stable. At 27-years-old, the short odds show the respect he gets from the independent MMA community, as he’s been on the lists of guys that need to get a UFC contract since his Dana White’s Contender Series appearance.
