Tommy McMillen is making his official UFC debut in the second fight on tonight’s Main Card against Manolo Zecchini. McMillen is training partners and teammates with former UFC Champion Sean O’Malley. Zecchini is 0-1 in the UFC as he made his debut in his last fight in September 2023.
Check out my best bet for Tommy McMillen vs. Manolo Zecchini at tonight’s UFC Fight Night.
Tommy McMillen Round 1 (+120)
Tommy McMillen trains at the Red Hawk Academy in Arizona, which is run by Head Coach Tim Welch. McMillen has a similar look to O’Malley with the crazy hair and tattoos. He beat David Mgoyan on Dana White’s Contender Series by majority decision. Before his last fight, McMillen won his firsty right fights by submission or knockout in the first round.
On paper, McMillen has a massive advantage, as he is four inches taller (6’0″ vs. 5’8″) and has a six-inch longer reach (74″ vs. 68″). This fight favors McMillen, and he is a matchup nightmare for Zecchini. Zecchini has an 11-4 record with 10 finishes and trains at Jackson-Wink MMA, which is the home of former two-division champion Jon Jones.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, McMillen is a massive -1050 favorite with Zecchini being a +80 underdog. Since eight of McMillen’s nine wins have been by finish, he is -500 to beat Zecchini by KO/TKO/DQ or submission. With that being the case, the better value is getting him to win in the first round at +120.
