Promotions all over the world as well as domestic ones are showing up in sportsbooks. The advantage here is that the data is usually quite a bit less sharp than when you\u2019re making MMA predictions for the UFC. So we\u2019ve decided to dig into some each week to get you started on your regional MMA journey. This week we head overseas for Road to UFC from Macau, China for our regional MMA pick.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Go here for more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/ufc-picks\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">UFC picks<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/best-bets\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CHECK OUT THE SPORTS GAMBLING PODCAST\u2019S DAILY BEST BETS<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/record.webpartners.co\/_8_K_D7S4gzcWqcfzuvZcQGNd7ZgqdRLk\/1\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-272025\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/MyBookie-Combo.jpg\" alt=\"MYBOOKIE BONUS\" width=\"100%\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\ufeff<\/p>\n<p>MMA Regional Pick of the Week: Road to UFC Macau<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tapology.com\/fightcenter\/bouts\/1117895-road-to-ufc-arisa-matsuda-vs-bo-meng\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Road to UFC Strawweight Fight: Bo Meng vs Arisa Matsuda<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Card Start Time: Friday (5\/29), 6:00am EST (UFC Fight Pass)<\/p>\n<p>The fifth season of Road to UFC gets started this Thursday and Friday with the quarterfinals for four different weight classes. One of the most intriguing of those is the women\u2019s strawweight, where Asia has a grip of prospects ready to make the plunge into the big show. One of those is an experienced fighter, who I feel has a great chance of taking home this bracket.<\/p>\n<p>Bo Meng spent a chunk of time tearing up ONE FC. She went 6-4 in the promotion and fought some of their biggest names. What sticks out about her time there and the rest of her 30 fights is the power. She hits extremely hard for someone of her size. She also is very strong and uses that strength to keep the fight on the feet.<\/p>\n<p>Standing across from her is Arisa Matsuda. Although Matsuda has some solid Brazilian jiu jistu skills that could catch Meng, she sometimes has trouble getting the fight to the mat. He shots tend to come in a touch high and she has finished a number of them due to the level of competition.<\/p>\n<p>Look for Bo Meng to keep this fight standing and put a hurting on Matsuda.<\/p>\n<p>Road to UFC Pick: Bo Meng ML (-170)<\/p>\n<p>SGPN Daily Content for May 28th, 2026<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/27\/best-bet-for-thursday-may-28th-wnba-predictions\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Daily Best Bet<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/26\/nhl-goal-scorer-parlay-for-wednesday-may-27th-nhl-predictions\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NHL Goal Scorer Parlay<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/27\/daily-nba-player-props-may-28th-wcf-game-6\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NBA Daily Player Props<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/27\/mma-prop-pick-of-the-week-ufc-macau\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MMA Pick of the Day<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2026\/05\/27\/mlb-nrfi-and-yrfi-picks-may-28th-2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NRFI\/YRFI Bets<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t Forget About our Free Picks Pages Too!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/nba-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NBA PICKS \u2013 UPDATED DAILY<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/odds.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/college-basketball-picks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">COLLEGE BASKETBALL PICKS \u2013 THE PICKS POWERHOUSE<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/nhl-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NHL PICKS \u2013 LET IT SLIDE<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/soccer-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">SOCCER PICKS \u2013 KICK IT ON THE PITCH<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/nascar-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">NASCAR PICKS \u2013 FEEL THE THUNDER<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/ufc-picks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">UFC PICKS \u2013 TAKE DOWN CORPORATE GAMBLING<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like even more info to help make your MMA and UFC picks and predictions for Road to UFC,\u00a0check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/podcasts\/mma-gambling-podcast\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MMA Gambling Podcast<\/a>.
