Boom, we\u2019re live in Miami for UFC 327<\/a> with one of the best cards of the year.<\/p>\n

It really doesn\u2019t get much better than this, with 12 scheduled fights this weekend, with seven projected to end inside the distance.<\/p>\n

Last week, we had a phenomenal night betting on the UFC<\/a>, nailing the co-main event and main event down to the exact method victory, and even hitting a +500 underdog on Tresean Gore from the prelims.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s keep the good times rolling on a loaded UFC 327 card this weekend.<\/p>\n

UFC 327 predictions<\/p>\n

Jiri Prochazka vs. Carlos Ulberg <\/p>\n

Jiri Prochazka gets another chance at reclaiming the light heavyweight belt, this time against Carlos Ulberg.<\/p>\n

Prochazka could not get past former champion Alex Pereira in two title opportunities after previously holding the belt following his win over Glover Teixeira in 2022.<\/p>\n

He is an unconventional fighter from the Czech Republic who comes forward with reckless abandon and is unafraid of anything coming his way, for better or worse.<\/p>\n

That could spell danger against a guy like Carlos Ulberg, who is a calculated sniper when striking.<\/p>\n

Ulberg is a lower-volume counter striker, which is kind of perfect against Prochazka, who is more than happy to lead the dance and come forward.<\/p>\n

If you watch some of Ulberg\u2019s previous fights, you will see he fights his best on the back foot and picks his shots carefully.<\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t to say Prochazka can\u2019t win; this fight is a pick \u2019em on the betting markets. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s more that someone will get finished, either by Prochazka coming out and taking the fight to Ulberg or Ulberg finding the perfect shot to win by knockout.<\/p>\n

Target Under 2.5 rounds in this one in a projected wild fight.<\/p>\n

Azamat Murzakanov vs. Paulo Costa <\/p>\n

Azamat Murzakanov looks like a potential future champion at light heavyweight.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen the Russian fighter dominate legitimate contenders like Dustin Jacoby and even beat the brakes off Alonzo Menifield with a knockout win.<\/p>\n

He gets a step up in competition as he faces former middleweight title challenger Paulo Costa. I\u2019ve always been a Costa defender; he\u2019s solid in all aspects of the fight game. But this matchup is not the one for him.<\/p>\n

\"UFC(L to R) Opponents Azamat Murzakanov of Russia and Paulo Costa of Brazil face off during the UFC 327 press conference. Zuffa LLC<\/p>\n

Murzakanov is going to be the dominant striker in this bout, putting up higher volume and better power on the feet. <\/p>\n

If Costa wanted to win this fight, he would have to wrestle offensively, but he doesn\u2019t really have the cardio to do that consistently. <\/p>\n

Murzakanov wins this one, and the fight starts in Round 2 is the bet, as Costa was only TKO\u2019d once in his career, and that was by a prime Israel Adesanya in Round 2.<\/p>\n

THE PLAY: Murzakanov ML + fight starts Round 2: (-105, DraftKings<\/a>)<\/p>\n
