Studs
Navajo Stirling ($9,000)
In this contest, Stirling is two inches taller (6’4″ vs. 6’2″) with a one-inch reach advantage (79″ vs. 78″) over Blachowicz. Both fighters do their best work on the feet, but Stirling is much better. Stirling averages 6.24 significant strikes per minute at a 54 percent rate, which is impressive. That is compared to Blachowicz’s 3.55 significant strikes with a 50 percent striking accuracy.
Stirling has scored 105-plus fantasy points in his last two fights and has recorded at least 107 in three of his previous four. Although Stirling fought six weeks ago, he seems prepared to continue his winning streak in the UFC. As Blachowicz has gotten older, he has become more passive and less aggressive. If that is true once again in this contest, Stirling will be able to capitalize with his elite athleticism, tremendous power, and complete striking arsenal.
Ludovit Klein ($8,800)
Ludovit Klein is facing Tofiq Musayev in the featured bout of the Prelims. Klein is 24-5-1 with 17 finishes and has gone 7-1-1 in his previous nine contests. Musayev is 1-1 in the UFC and is coming off his first victory in the promotion against Ignacio Bahamondes in March.
In four of Klein’s previous five wins, he has scored at least 86 fantasy points. For this fight, Musayev is two inches taller (5’9″ vs. 5’7″), but Klein has a three-inch reach advantage (72″ vs. 69″). Although Musayev’s UFC sample size is small, Klein lands nearly two more significant strikes per minute (3.76 vs. 1.84). Also, Klein is the more accurate striker (53% vs. 46%).
If Musayev attempts a bunch of takedowns, Klein should be able to stop them with his elite 76 percent takedown defense. With Klein’s good defense on the feet along with his advantage offensively, he has the edge over Musayev in this contest. Since four of Klein’s last five wins have come by decision, the longer this fight lasts, the more it favors him, as three of Musayev’s last four wins have been by knockout.
Value Play
Daniel Rodriguez ($6,800)
Rodriguez last beat Kevin Holland at UFC 318 in July 2025 and is attempting to increase his winning streak to four for the first time since September 2022. Medic is one of seven fighters on this card from Serbia. In his career, Medic is 13-3 with 13 finishes and has scored three consecutive first-round knockouts.
Although Medic is more accurate (60% vs. 49%), Rodriguez averages 1.61 more significant strikes. Rodriguez also has a 57% defensive rate, which is slightly better than Medic’s. Both fighters are 6’1″, but Rodriguez has a three-inch reach advantage (74″ vs. 71″) over Medic.
Adding Rodriguez to your lineup for only $6,800 is a great value play considering his current winning streak. Rodriguez is coming off a 94-point performance, his most since 2021, and has totaled at least 82 points in his previous three contests. When Rodriguez is aggressive and has a high output, he has shown he can still have an elite performance even at 39 years old.
