So, make yourself comfortable, and we’ll start on the first bet for the bigfights scheduled for this Saturday, March 7, at the T-Mobile Arena.

Yoel Romero has been vocal about his desire to knock out defending UFCmiddleweight champion Israel Adesanya.
Having voiced his displeasure at losing on the judges’ scorecards to PauloCosta in August, the Cuban does not want to leave it to the officials atcageside again. Given he was also on the end of a questionable decision in hisrematch with Robert Whittaker in June, you can understand why.
Romero has a reputation for being a brutally potent finisher. In 13 wins, hehas earned 11 by way of KO/TKO and just two by decision. As such, the odds favorRomero winning by way of knockout if he wins this fight.
I can’t see the 42-year-old outpointing the champ, but as I explained in myAdesanya vs. Romero fight breakdown, I think this is his time.
Championships have eluded Romero in the UFC. But if he is to win this timearound — in what will be the last chance he has, presumably — it will requireone hell of a performance.
A performance that I am certain he will bring to the Octagon on Saturday,March 7.
Joanna Jedrzejczyk seems confident once more.
Despite carrying a record of 2-3 in her last five fights, it seems thatsomething has clicked, and she is starting to believe in herself. This makes hera very dangerous prospect indeed.
The most successful strawweight champion of all time, with five defenses toher name, Jedrzejczyk was the queen of this division until she was knocked outby Rose Namajunas in 2017.
Further losses came, with the Pole dropping decisions to Namajunas in April2018 before losing a flyweight title scrap against Valentina Shevchenko inDecember of the same year.
A win over Michelle Waterson has clearly lifted her spirits, and she now hasthe opportunity to reclaim her throne. But against Weili Zhang, she faces a verystiff test.
Nonetheless, I believe Jedrzejczyk has what it takes to win this fight. Sheis not known for her knockout power, but rather her incredible striking base,defense, and engine.
In myZhang vs. Jedrzejczyk preview, I also touched upon how Zhang’s unfortunatefight camp could play a big part in this bout. Check it out!
Take a look at those odds.
Gerald Meerschaert comes in at odds of +700 to win this fight by way ofKO/TKO or disqualification. Great value, I must say.
There are a few reasons why I like this bet, but the most glaringly obviousis that the slightly green Winn (6-1) is going up against one of the mostexperienced fighters on the roster.
Meerschaert has fought 41 times in his professional career and currently hasa record of 29-12. His record goes all the way back to March 2007, meaning hehas seen it all and got the t-shirt. All at the age of just 32.
Despite being known as a dangerous submission artist, Meerschaert has shownus that he can trade, too. Just two of his professional victories have beenearned on the scorecards.
Winn is up against it, in my opinion. This will not be helped by the factthat he is also seven inches shorter than Meerschaert, who also enjoys a 7.5″reach advantage over him.
Although I would be tempted to just take Meerschaert to win this fight, theodds above are too good to pass up.
Sean O’Malley is the heavy favorite to beat Jose Quinonez on the night.
Most bookies have the prospect at around the -400 mark to win, and I don’tthink everyone will be happy with taking that price. So, if you are looking forbetter odds, this bet could be of interest.
You can get odds of +150 on “Sugar” winning this fight by way of KO/TKO/DQ,which I think is a great bet. Especially seeing as six of his ten wins as a prohave come by way of a first-round knockout.
O’Malley is an excellent fighter. He is very well rounded, with no obviousweaknesses. But his power is certainly something to talk about.
Given his run-ins with USADA that have kept him out of the cage for twoyears, O’Malley will be keen to remind everyone why he is so highly rated. Andwhat better way to return to action than starching your opponent?
I can see O’Malley stopping Quinonez early.
