The second bout of the first week of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 9 is George Mangos vs. Radley da Silva in a Featherweight bout. Da Silva is unbeaten in his last six fights, while Mangos has a perfect record.

Check out Tim Finnegan’s breakdown of Dana White’s Contender Series Season 9, Week 1.

Here is my best bet for George Mangos vs. Radley da Silva taking place tonight on Dana White’s Contender Series.

George Mangos to Win by KO/TKO/DQ or Submission (+175)

Mangos, 21, is the youngest fighter competing on tonight’s card. He is 7-0 with four submissions and two knockouts in his first two and a half years in MMA. Five of his seven victories have come in the first round, and he has only appeared in the third round once in his young career.

This is a tough test for the 21-year-old, as he faces da Silva, who is nine years older and is a versatile fighter. Mangos needs to be careful if he finds himself on the ground, as two of da Silva’s previous three wins have been submissions.

On DraftKings Sportsbook, Mangos is the betting favorite at -130 with da Silva being a +110 underdog. Since Mangos is a well-rounded fighter, it is a good play to get him at +175 to win by KO/TKO/DQ or submission.
