This Saturday, the UFC heads to Singapore - a fight-crazed nation - for a solid Fight Night featuring three former world champions and a slew of rising contenders. Though it’s a Fight Pass offering - often seen as the lowest rung of UFC events - there’s a lot to like about this card.
Let’s take a look at a few of the night’s most notable fights, and break down your betting options according to the UFC odds at BookMaker.eu.

Main Event, Women’s Bantamweight
Bethe Correia +425
Holly Holm -640
Over 4.5 rounds, over -115, under -105
Common Sense Says…
The UFC needs Holly Holm to win. After all, she’s pretty much the only star left in a division that lost Ronda Rousey and Miesha Tate. But even after three straight losses, they can’t just give her some scrub - that’d make the former champ look bad. This is where Bethe Correia comes in.
The Brazilian is a former title challenger, so she’s got some credibility. But really, Correia is tailor-made for Holm’s style: she’s slow, not very athletic and has T-rex arms. Holm’s movement and fluid combinations makes this her fight to lose.
You’ve got two options here: parlay Holm to win at -640 or go with the over at -115. Correia is pretty durable, though there’s a chance that Holm lands her knockout round kick - she hides the thing pretty damn well.
UFC odds pick: Parlay Holm to win at -640
Heavyweight
Andrei Arlovski +215
Marcin Tybura -260
Over/under 1.5 rounds, over -115, under -105
Common Sense Says…
I get the fact that Arlovski’s chin is pretty much dust right now. But really, a 2-1 underdog against a mid-level guy like Tybura? Oddsmakers are just hating at this point. Tybura’s newfound striking aggression gives him a great shot at leaving The Pitbull stiff, but on the feet he’s nowhere near as polished as the former champ.
That’s not to say I think Arlvoski’s a sure pick. I’m just saying that he’s been severely undervalued against his easiest opponent in years. Lay a small bet on Arlovski to protect his chin against a guy that’s not completely comfortable on his feet yet - the payout is almost double what you put in.
UFC odds pick: Arlovski to win at +215
Welterweight
Rafael Dos Anjos -260
Tarec Saffiedine +215
Over/under 2.5 rounds, over -265, under +225
Common Sense Says…
Saffiedine’s weight and 85% takedown defense is good enough to force RDA into a striking battle. In that scenario, this fight becomes a toss-up. The Brazilian is a fantastic Muay Thai technician, but Saffiedine is an excellent kickboxer as well.
In a striking battle, it’s nearly impossible to rattle Saffiedine - which is exactly what RDA’s natural impulses are. The Brazilian loves to bring pressure and force opponents into mistakes, but Saffiedine is smooth and quick when it comes to landing countershots.
Right now, Saffiedine’s line is slightly undervalued, making him a good underdog bet in this matchup. Dos Anjos is rightfully favored here, but he’s not going to have an easy night.
UFC odds pick: Saffiedine to win at
Welterweight
Dong Hyun Kim +260
Colby Covington -335
Over/under 2.5 rounds, over -240, under +200
Common Sense Says…
Wrestler vs. judoka, who ya got? It’s tough to bet against Kim, whose only losses in 16 UFC fights have come against Tyron Woodley, Demian Maia and Carlos Condit. Then again, the Korean is now 35 and fancies himself a brawler these days - something that’s surprisingly worked out for him.
Still, Covington’s the type of young gun that’s a high-risk, low-reward fight for the No. 7 Kim. On paper, the Korean has the tools and size to neutralize Colby’s wrestling, but who knows how Kim will approach this fight? The over is probably the best pick here, as there will likely be prolonged stretches where they test their grappling against each other.
UFC odds pick: Over 2.5 rounds -240
