What are your thoughts about stacking the 5-round fight in cash games?

h3budda: This is an automatic stack on a 5-round fight with constant action in the flyweight division. This fight is nearly -200 to go to a decision, so the floor is very safe. Without any value, you lock this in and move on.

Moneyball16: This is a very easy stack. There are a lot of middling DFS fights on this slate, so taking the 5-rounder with -185 odds to go the full 5 rounds seems like the way to go.

Bward586: This one is a pretty obvious stack: decent odds to go all 5 rounds between two fairly active fighters on just a 12-fight slate. Don’t overthink it.

LiamPicksFights: I understand the argument for stacking, but I once again find myself skeptical that both fighters will produce high scores. Figgy is a lower-volume power hitter who relies on his wrestling and grappling upside while fresh, but Sandhagen is much bigger, younger, and constantly improving. I like Sandhagen as the click with more finishing upside and a clear path to doing more in a decision. Sandhagen has only had 1 UFC win with less than 91 fantasy points.
