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 keep it domestic with LFA 214 from Sioux Falls, South Dakota 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>MMA Regional Pick of the Week: LFA 214<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tapology.com\/fightcenter\/bouts\/1017206-lfa-214-david-allakhverdiev-vs-john-moore\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LFA 214 Middleweight Fight: David Allakhverdiev vs John Moore<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Card Start Time: Friday (8\/15), 7:30pm EST (UFC Fight Pass)<\/p>\n<p>When this line opened up, Allakhverdiev was a +145 underdog. The market quickly corrected that error and completely flipped the line. While you may not be getting any closing line value here, I do think there is still value on the Ukranian fighter.<\/p>\n<p>Moore is a fighter who has largely won his fights with moments. In his most recent fight, he was getting backed up, controlled on the ground, and overall outworked. He got a couple quick lefts in that floored his opponent and changed it all. Although that has brought him here, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s sustainable in this fight.<\/p>\n<p>Allakhverdiev is a explosive wrestler. He shoots big doubles and even hit something resembling a spear in one of his prior fights. Additionally, he\u2019d good at keeping his opponents on the mat. So while Moore may have worked his way back up in the past, I see him struggling on the bottom for as long as this one lasts.<\/p>\n<p>LFA 214 Pick: David Allakhverdiev ML (-145)<\/p>\n<p>SGPN Daily Content for August 14th, 2025<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2025\/08\/12\/underdog-fantasy-dfs-picks-for-august-13th\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Underdog Fantasy Picks<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2025\/08\/12\/mlb-nrfi-and-yrfi-picks-august-13th\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MLB NRFI\/YRFI Bets<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2025\/08\/13\/womens-handball-betting-pick-degens-only-play-of-the-day\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Degens Only Play of the Day<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2025\/08\/12\/best-bet-for-wednesday-august-13th-mlb-predictions\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Daily Best Bet<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/2025\/08\/12\/sgpn-prop-bet-for-wednesday-august-13th-mlb-prop-play\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Prop of the Day<\/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 LFA 214, check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsgamblingpodcast.com\/podcasts\/mma-gambling-podcast\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">MMA Gambling Podcast<\/a>.
