Main Event Same Game Parlay (SGP): +100
As always with our main event SGPs, I try to play both sides of the fight. These main events are typically the most tightly contested, and I like to leave myself options for both fighters to win. You can always increase your potential payout by picking a fighter! With that said, let’s get into the picks.
Ilia Topuria 1+ Takedowns
Over 3.5 Minutes
Under 19.5 Minutes
These three props are all realistic given the narrative of this fight. Both of these veterans will take some time to get going, and I’d be very surprised to see this fight end in the 1st round. Topuria has a significant wrestling advantage, so I could easily see him wanting to take this fight to the ground. Finally, I’m very confident this fight ends similarly to each of these fighters’ last fight, with a 2nd-round finish.
Add a moneyline if you wish, but caution if you’re going to the Topuria side. Topuria only gets this one to +155, while there’s significant value on Emmett in this spot at +650. If I had to choose, I’d take Topuria, but I’m going to continue to sit on the main event fence for as long as possible.
