Monkey Knife Fight UFC Fantasy Picks | UFC Vegas 28 Rozenstruik vs. Sakai
It is important to note that, much like odds that update throughout the day, contests at MKF are subject to change. So if you like these UFC picks below, it’s wise to jump on them quickly.
Rapidfire — Draft Winner of Two Matchup Categories | Prize: 3x
In this Monkey Knife Fight game type, you are picking which of two fighters will score higher in a stat category. One fighter gets a handicap, much like the spread in a typical NBA or NFL game bet. If you pick both matchups correctly, you win three times your entry fee.
Strikes: Roman Dolidze vs. Augusto Sakai (+5.5)
Strikes: Dusko Todorovic vs. Marcin Tybura (+4.5)
While Sakai is given 5.5 extra strikes, his fight is not expected to last much past the second round. Both he and Jairzinho Rozenstruik will be throwing some heavy punches, and chances are someone falls early. However, Dolidze’s fight is expected to go the distance, giving him more opportunities to land strikes.
For our second matchup, the sportsbooks say that both fighter’s bout has the highest likelihood in ending in a second-round knockout, so there isn’t any round advantage. Both fighters are also favored to be the one still standing. However, Todorovic is a mad man that will be incredibly aggressive in his fight. He averages 7.45 significant strikes landed per minute, compared to Tybura’s 3.7. Todorovic will make better use of his time in the ring.
UFC Fantasy MKF Picks: Roman Dolidze and Dusko Todorovic
More or Less — Pick More/Less For Each Fighter | Prize: 3x
In this Monkey Knife Fight NBA fantasy contest, it is a simple more/less pick for two fighters. In this case, we’re picking strikes for both.
Roman Dolidze: More than 71.5 Strikes
Augusto Sakai: Less than 66.5 Strikes
As stated above, Dolidze’s fight is expected to go the distance, while Sakai’s fight isn’t expected to last past the second round. Sakai is also the fighter projected to be knocked out in his bout. For Dolidze, he is favored, averages 3.64 significant strikes landed per minute, and he wins by knockout only half the time. If his fight lasts until the last round, he should have no problem getting more than 71.5 strikes.
More or Less — Pick More/Less For Each Fighter | Prize: 15x
This is another More or Less contest where we will decide whether each fighter will have more or less than the strikes shown. There are five fighters this time, and picking all five correctly will result in us winning 15 times our entry.
Let’s zoom through all five quickly, with some repeats from above.
Roman Dolidze: More than 71.5 Strikes
Augusto Sakai: Less than 66.5 Strikes
Dusko Less than Todorovic: 63.5 Strikes
Marcin Tybura: Less than 59.5 Strikes
Tom Breese: Less than 57.5 Strikes
