After a week without a UFC fight card, the UFC returns. It's UFC Apex: Kai Kara France vs Amir Albazi. There are five fights we're looking forward to calling this week and we're gonna start with Daniel Santos (-215) vs Johnny Munoz (+185). Daniel Santos looked great in his last bout. He fights out of Shute Box in Brazil, the same gym as Charles Oliveira. I have full confidence in the oddsmakers here and I'm taking Santos. Jamie Mullarkey (-460) is a lock to add to any parlay facing Muhammadjon Naimov (+370). Naimov is taking this fight on a week's notice and Mullarkey is a stud on a two-fight win streak. Victor Altamirano is an up-and-coming Flyweight ready to take his spot in the rankings. Altamirano is on a strong two-fight win streak while eleventh-ranked Tim Elliott will be his first real test. The line is Elliott (-175) vs Altamirano (+150) and I'm taking Altamirano as my dog of the day.
Alex Caceres (-180) vs Daniel Pineda (+155) could easily win fight of the night. However, Caceres is a lock here. Pineda is 3-5 in his last eight whereas Caceres is 6-2 in his last eight. Caceres has earned a lot of performance bonuses over his UFC career and is proving to be one of the flashiest Featherweights in the game. He's ranked 15th for a reason and he's looking to climb the rankings with a win over Daniel Pineda who is a tough fighter, but someone Caceres should take care of pretty easily.
Now for the main event. Kai Kara France (+100) vs Amir Albazi (-120) is such a tough fight to call. Kai Kara has been at the top of the Flyweight division for so long, but he just hasn't quite been able to beat the cream of the crop in the division. Albazi is the seventh-ranked fighter looking to take Kai Kara's number three spot. I honestly can't call this fight, but I think Kai Kara is going to take the pace of the fight and due to his high-speed intensity I don't think the fight goes the distance. The pick here is a double chance winning method: KO/TKO/DQ or Submission (-120).
If you decide to go with the full "Opinion Octagon Parlay" you would end up with a total line of +1171 on DraftKings!
