MMA DFS Picks: DraftKings Expert Survey for UFC Fight Night – Rozenstruik vs. Gaziev
What are your thoughts about stacking the 5-round fight in cash?
eys819: No need to stack this one in cash, as the loser has an extremely low floor. The pace of the fight is not likely to be great, and it is favored to last fewer than 2 rounds.
Moneyball16: This fight is expected to be so short that you basically should not treat it like a 5-rounder in cash. Its almost a coin flip to end in the first round, and Gaziev is +190 to win in the first round, so I would not recommend playing Rozenstruik in cash.
h3budda: One of the oddest slates in recent memory makes for some difficult cash builds. You can lock in the main and pray it goes long for a decent floor. Stylistically, it is a low-volume power striker versus a grappler. That would mean one fighter likely wouldn’t score well. I am more likely to use a fighter like Zahabi, who is more likely to go 3 rounds and get me points (even though it is frustrating because he could be on his back)!
squirrelpatrol: It’s one of the few cards where I wouldn’t recommend stacking the five-round fight in cash. It’s just not likely to go beyond the 3rd round, making it just like any other fight, and there is a fighter (Sopaj) cheaper than the main-event underdog with much better win odds.
