UFC 310 Prelim Picks

 Welcome back to part 2 of my picks for UFC 310! In this post I will be giving my picks for the prelims, which features a number of notable names. Starting with Anthony Smith vs Dominic Reyes, I would take Reyes in this one, as he has been hot lately and has a lot of experience even when compared to Smiths long career. Moving on, we have veteran Vicente Luque vs up & comer Themba Gorimbo. Luque likely has the advantage in the stand-up battle, and his aggressive style could overwhelm Gorimbo if the fight stays on the feet. If Gorimbo can avoid Luque’s power and manage to take the fight to the ground, he could make things difficult for Luque. However, if the fight remains striking-heavy, Luque’s power, volume, and experience at the top level should give him the edge. He is a +140 underdog, so there is some money to be made by even placing a decent sized bet on him. Next up is former champion Aljamian Sterling taking on Movsar Evloev. This is a fight that I would be hesitant to bet on since both of these fighters are so similar both style & talent wise. However, if you want to put money on this one, I would bet on Aljo pulling off the upset at +210. The final fight that I will go in depth on is also one of the most exciting fights on this entire card, Bryan Battle vs Randy Brown. Browns length and speed is a huge asset and could very well give him the edge in this matchup, but Battle has been riding a wave of momentum, and it would feel wrong to bet against him at this point. For the remaining fights on the prelims, I would take Eryk Anders, Josh Van, & Chase Hooper. Thank you for reading, good luck this weekend!

NFL and UFC Picks for Oct 12 & 13th 2024

 Hello and welcome to my new blog, Touchdowns and Takedowns! I am Julian Pellegrini, and I have followed and bet on both the UFC and NFL for some time now, and so I have decided to begin sharing my weekly betting tips with other fans. I hope you guys appreciate this content, and I encourage you to reach out via my email, julian.pellegrini@mohawkcollege.ca, with any questions you may have.  For this weekend, let's start with my NFL picks that I believe have a good chance of hitting and making you some money. We are entering week 6 in what has been a strange, and thus hard to predict, season of football so far. One sleeper pick I have for this weeks slate of games is taking the Washington Commanders over the Baltimore Ravens, against whom they are 6.5 point underdogs. Jayden Daniels and the Commanders offense have looked great so far this year, and their defense looked shutdown last week against the Browns. It's always hard to bet against Baltimore, but with the money line in th...

Nov 11th NFL Recap, Dec 8th NFL Picks

 Hello and welcome back to Touchdowns & Takedowns! Today we will be making some picks for the upcoming week in the NFL. However, I'll begin by recapping my picks from my last post. You were in luck if you chose to bet on one or both of my sleeper picks to cover the point spread, as the Broncos and Buccaneers both nearly pulled off the upsets. However, if you chose them to win, or took my parlay, your luck was considerably worse. It was a week of close games, and those can always go either way.  Moving on to this week in the NFL, my first sleeper pick is the Atlanta Falcons, who are taking on the Minnesota Vikings. While the Vikings have been very good this year and Atlanta has slumped in recent weeks, I think that Kirk Cousins will get fired up for this game against his former team and at the very least keep it within the 5.5 point spread. My second sleeper pick is the New York Jets taking on the Miami Dolphins. Despite the disaster year that its been for the Jets, they st...
