UFC 310: Most Bet Props (Tickets)
Kron Gracie (BRA) by Submission +1200
Shavkat Rakhmonov (UZB) by Submission +175
Ian Machado Garry (IRL) by Decision/Technical Decision +650
Chase Hooper (USA) by Submission -175
Kai Asakura (JPN) by KO/TKO or DQ +325
This is such a strange card, so I'm not surprised the betting action is just as wonky. Despite being on the prelims, Movsar Evloev vs Aljamain Sterling has commanded the third-most tickets at BetMGM, so far. This should be a main-card fight, so I'm not surprised UFC fans are interested. But where is the action going? 62% of the handle is on Evloev in that fight. I agree with the public on this one and Evloev ML in several of my parlays heading into UFC 310.
The popular prop bets crack me up, too. I mean, I guess Kron Gracie by sub at +1200 isn't a bad play, but let's be a little more sensible in our bets. Shavkat by submission is a more logical choice, and I have sprinkles on him to win by sub in specific rounds Saturday. Asakura by KO is also respectable, as that appears to be the Japanese native's best shot to win. Garry by decision at +650 is another great sprinkle.
