Before locking in any UFC Fight Night picks, you NEED to see the latest MMA predictions from SportsLine MMA analyst Kyle Marley.
Over the past three-plus years, $100 bettors who have followed Marley's picks are up nearly $10,000, and since May 2018, he has returned more than $21,000! Anyone who has followed Marley could be way up.
One of of Marley's UFC Fight Night picks: He is backing Mantas Kondratacius to beat Antonio Trocoli via ITD in a middleweight bout on the preliminary card.
"Kondratavicius is making his UFC debut after a win on DWCS, and Trocoli has had four UFC fights and has yet to get a win," Marley told SportsLine. "Trocoli needs an early flash finish here, but he isn't very good, and he probably won't survive long into the fight. Give me Kondratavicius to knock him out early and probably retire him."
Marley also has strong picks for Evloev vs. Murphy and other bouts on the UFC Fight Night: Evloev vs. Murphy card. He's also backing a fighter who "can strike or wrestle at a high rate," to emerge with a big victory. You MUST see his UFC Fight Night: Evloev vs. Murphy picks before making any of your own.
