Check out my best bet below for Baisangur Susurkaev vs. Djorden Santos at UFC 328.
Baysangur Susurkaev to Win by KO/TKO/DQ or Submission (-160)
Susurkaev is close friends with UFC Middleweight Champion Khamzat Chimaev, who faces Sean Strickland in the Main Event of this card. Susurkaev made his UFC debut in August 2025 and now has his third fight in the promotion in just nine months. As Chimaev displayed early on, Susurkaev has a rare finishing ability and radiates a ton of confidence in each outing.
Susurkaev has physical advantages in this contest, as he is taller (6’2″ vs. 6’0″) and has a longer standing reach (79″ vs. 75″). Baysangur Susurkaev is a -750 favorite while Santos is a +525 underdog on DraftKings Sportsbook. This contest has an over/under of 1.5 rounds with the over at -166.
Since Susurkaev is such a big favorite, I’m backing him to win by knockout or submission at -160 since 10 of his 11 victories have come by finish. Susurkaev’s striking ability on the feet is top-tier, and when he pressures opponents, they often can’t handle it.
