MMA DFS Picks: DraftKings Expert Survey for UFC Fight Night – Song vs. Figueiredo

Who is your favorite fighter to spend up for in cash games?

Moneyball16: Song
Bward586: Pavlovich

Which fight are you most likely to avoid and why?

Moneyball16: Matthews/Harris – Every fight on this slate is at least OK for DFS purposes, but I’ll go with this one because these fighters, especially Matthews, are surrounded by better plays. Matthews is a big favorite, and he should get some ownership, but he has 15 UFC wins, and in those wins, he averages less than 90 DraftKings points. I see something similar here, which is not gonna cut it at $9,200.

Bward586: Xiong/Hill – This fight has the worst stoppage odds on the slate, and the somewhat heavy favorite (Xiong) is a pure striker. In theory, she could pile up enough strikes for a decent score, but it’s fairly unlikely without a knockdown/stoppage. Hill has a solid floor assuming she looks to grapple but not enough win equity to pay off her $7,500 salary in GPPs.
