For each UFC event, he produces the MMA DFS<\/a> and sports betting<\/a> breakdown for RotoGrinders.<\/p>\n The Ultimate Fighting Championship is BACK in our lives after a 6-week hiatus. Paramount Plus will be the new home of the combat sports leader, and they offer back-to-back numbered events to kick off their new partnership. UFC 324 was meant to be headlined by a pair of title fights, but a recent neck injury sidelined Kayla Harrison, leaving the Interim Lightweight Championship fight between Paddy Pimblett and Justin Gaethje alone at the top of the bill. Luckily for us fight fans, the card is deep with talent, featuring a number of former champions and top contenders vying for major opportunities later in the year. The year begins with a welterweight scrap that oddsmakers are expecting to end inside the distance.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Note: Analysis of remaining fights is coming soon!<\/p>\n Note: All DFS salaries listed are from DraftKings & all odds quoted are from FanDuel Sportsbook.<\/a><\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Note: Looking for more places to play?

He is most comfortable at boxing range, throwing snappy punches on the lead or as counter strikes. Miller does some kicking off his lead leg, and he is opportunistic with all of his limbs in the clinch, but he would be well served to continue building more variety into his offensive approach. What stands out about Miller on the tape is his ability to return to his feet and stay safe when taken down. His second professional fight was against Eric Nolan, a recent UFC signee who impressed against Baisangur Susurkaev despite losing the fight up a weight class on short notice. Miller was able to touch Nolan all night, stay safe in grappling exchanges, and he competed hard for the full 15 minutes.<\/p>\n Adam Fugitt (2-3 UFC) has had a tough run in the UFC. His 3 losses in the promotion came against quality opponents in Michael Morales (7-0 UFC), Mike Malott (6-1 UFC), and Islam Dulatov (1-0 UFC). The problem is that neither of his UFC wins jumps off the page as impressive. He won a lackluster split decision against Josh Quinlan (1-3 UFC), and he destroyed overrated prospect Yusaku Kinoshita (0-2 UFC) in the very first round. Fugitt recently turned 37, he has cycled through a number of different training camps, and he has been finished in 4 of his 5 professional losses. Unless he is able to secure takedowns and top control (which I do not expect), I think his upside in this fight is trying to make it a close, competitive decision.<\/p>\n As I see it, this is Ty Miller\u2019s fight to lose. If he stays composed, fights behind his jab, leverages his speed advantage, and avoids extended grappling exchanges, he should connect with Fugitt until he finds the off switch or time runs out.<\/p>\n Prediction: Ty Miller defeats Adam Fugitt via TKO2\/3<\/p>\n Cam Smotherman ($8,600) vs. Ricky Turcios ($7,600) <\/p>\n –<\/p>\n –<\/p>\n –<\/p>\n This content can help you make better MMA DFS picks To access this content, subscribe to MMA Premium or purchase a 3-day trial.
