Tonight’s episode of Dana White’s Contender Series is the final one of this year’s season.

Mulumba is 9-2 with nine finishes in his career, as Rahiki is 6-0 with six finishes of his own.

Check out my best bet for Marwan Rahiki vs. Ananias Mulumba on tonight’s episode of Dana White’s Contender Series.

Marwan Rahiki to Win in Rounds 1-2 (-185)

Rahiki is the largest favorite on this card as he is -380 against Mulumba on DraftKings Sportsbook. Mulumba is a +300 underdog in this matchup. Rahiki possesses a slight edge in stand reach (72″ vs. 70″) while being taller by three inches (5’8″ vs. 5’5″).

Rahiki is represented by Ali Abdelaziz, the president and founder of Dominance MMA Management. Abdelaziz boasts one of the best talent rosters in MMA, featuring Kamaru Usman, Henry Cejudo, Kayla Harrison, Justin Gaethje, and Islam Makhachev. Abdelaziz has also managed former UFC Champions Khabib Nurmagomedov, Frankie Edgar, Fabricio Werdum, and Rashad Evans.

Since five of Rahiki’s six MMA victories have come in the first or second round, getting him to win tonight in Rounds 1-2 at -185 is a good value play. Rahiki is also -225 to win this fight via KO/TKO/DQ or submission. If Rahiki is as aggressive as he has been, he has a chance to pick up another quick victory and become a top young prospect in the UFC.
