Guise, I bet 500$ on Assuncao to win vs Moraes at 2.55 odds. (Also some smaller parlays that rely on Assuncao win)
Can somebody explain me how come Moraes is such a big favorite by the sport bookies???
Marlon Maroes is a 18-4 all-around fighter who is making his debute in UFC. Having beaten only literal nobodies in WSOF.
Raphael Assuncao is a 24-5 established UFC fighter, primarily a submission artist, who is the #3 ranked bantamweight in the UFC. Out of his last 9 fights he has only lost to his rematch of TJ Dillashaw(who he has beaten in a previous match), which is nothing to be shamed of.
Unless I am missing something big (like Assuncao having his arm amputated) then this bet with these odds is an absolute steal, no?
Most would agree that the line is likely off on this fight, but I still think that Moraes will be too quick on the feet for Assuncao. Moraes is very talented.
