Check out my best bet below for Simeon Powell vs. Dovletdzhan Yagshimuradov at today’s PFL event.
Simeon Powell Moneyline (+140)
Yagshimuradov is 8-1 in his previous nine contests and is coming off a win against Tyson Pedro at PFL Belfast in April. His lone loss in that span came against Corey Anderson in October 2025. Yagshimuradov comes from a legendary MMA gym, American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Florida. Powell is 12-2 with nine finishes in his MMA career and is 3-1 in his previous four contests. Since 2022, Powell has competed in the PFL, where he has gone 8-2 in the promotion.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, Yagshimuradov is a -175 favorite with Powell as a +145 underdog. In this fight, Powell has a massive 13-inch reach advantage (85″ vs. 72″) while being six inches taller (6’5″ vs. 5’11”) than Yagshimuradov. Powell’s power should be an X-factor in this fight. Along with being the bigger fighter, Powell will have the necessary tools to be the aggressor in this contest while not allowing Yagshimuradov to close the distance.
