UFC 320 Betting Guide
UFC 320 is going down this week and there’s a lot of action going on this card. We’re going to see Alex Pereira take on Magomed Ankalaev in the highly anticipated rematch for the UFC light heavyweight title.
Then, in the co-main event, Merab Dvalishvili will be defending his UFC bantamweight title against Cory Sandhagen. This guide should help you prepare to Bet on UFC 320, and we’ve got everything you need to know before you bet on these fights.
Multiple stake ambassadors like Drake will be preparing to bet on the high stakes, and even Alex Pereira, the stake ambassador, was recently seen playing poker on Stake in preparation for the fight.
Merab(Champ) vs. Sandhagen
Let’s start off by looking over the bantamweight title fight between Merab and Sandhagen. To put it bluntly, the champ has looked unstoppable since winning the title.
The elite wrestler has taken all of his opponents down at will since winning the title. He put on a wrestling clinic in his two fights against former champ Sean O’Malley, who had no answer for his wrestling.
Then in Merab’s fight against Nurmagomedov, he showed that he is an elite talent. During this epic grappling battle, the champ showed an inhuman level of cardio.
The fight was close, but his cardio was able to get him over and grind out the win.
On the other side of the cage, Cory Sandhagen is coming in on a hot streak. He is one of the most well-rounded fighters currently in the UFC, with impressive striking and grappling.
Coming into this fight, Sandhagen had great wins against Figueiredo, Fontaine, and Vera. Cory feels that he has the antidote to stop Merab’s relentless wrestling and set up his strikes.
All the fight experts feel that this will be an uphill battle for Sandhagen. However, the crowd will go wild if he can pull off the upset win.
Magomed Ankalaev(Champ) vs. Alex Pereira
Earlier this year, fight fans were shocked when Magomed Ankalaev was able to upset former champion Alex Pereira. Before this fight, Pereira looked unstoppable at light heavyweight.
His elite striking put fear into the division and it looked like nobody was going to defeat him. However, Magomed showed that he had the antidote for Pereira’s terrifying striking.
During the first match, Alex started the fight hesitantly, which was out of character for him. Ankalaev took full advantage of this hesitation and turned the fight into a grappling match.
Magomed kept closing the distance, getting the champ to the cage, and even scored takedowns. However, it wasn’t a definitive win as the judges awarded him a split decision victory.
This leads us into the highly-anticipated rematch between the two top light heavyweights. The former champion, Pereira, has promised fans that they will see the old Poatan.
He has vowed to come out aggressive and bring the fight to the champ. On the other side of the cage, the champ isn’t worried about Pereira.
He feels like he can cancel out the elite striker’s game and beat him like in the first match.
The majority of UFC fans are anxious to see the old monster in Pereira on fight night. If that Poatan shows up to fight, we’ll likely see a different outcome.
Who’s Going to Win?
Ahead of UFC 320, our ambassadors, including Davido, Aguero, and potentially Drake will be placing bets on Alex and Merab. We’re going with the ambassadors on this one and picking the same fighters to win.
Merab’s wrestling looks unstoppable and it’s doubtful we’ll see a hesitant Pereira again. We’re definitely going to see some fireworks on fight night.
