Tuivasa vs Tybura Betting Predictions
A goofy heavyweight fight like this? Let's see if we can extract some cash from this excuse of a main event.
How To Bet Tuivasa vs Tybura
Tuivasa is coming off three straight inside-the-distance losses, while Tybura is staring down one recent KO loss to current champ Tom Aspinall. Both guys need a bounceback in a big way.
"Bam Bam" has more punching power and ability to pop off for a quick KO, and Tybura is no iron-chinned fighter (four KO losses), which is why this bout is favored to end UNDER 2.5 rounds (-230). But after the UFC's last heavyweight headliner (Rozenstruik vs Gaziev), I'm shaking up my strategy.
Let's bet where the value lies. Tuiavasa induces early finishes, but Tybura has seen 10 of his 18 UFC fights go the distance.
Tuivasa vs Tybura Picks
I'll take Tuivasa (-125) to win, but I'll count on him doing it in OVER 1.5 rounds (-130).
