Expert Betting Tips

Tai Tuivasa is the underdog in this fight, and it is easy to see why that is the case considering the fact that he has lost his last two fights by knockout, one to Ciryl Gane and the other to Sergey Pavlovic, respectively. In spite of the fact that he is the underdog, "Bam Bam" will do everything in his power to perform at his highest level and give his all while also earning the support of his people. The betting favorite is Alexander Volkov, but he has been knocked out twice in the past few years, so he may not win. The previous year, he was defeated by Tom Aspinall by knockout, but he has won his past two fights in a row. Tuivasa has a good chance of knocking out the huge Russian if he can get inside Volkov's guard and hit his clubbing shots. Tuivasa has won 13 of his 14 victories by knockout, including notable victories over the likes of former UFC Heavyweight Title contender Derrick Lewis, former champion Andrei Arlovski, and Stefan Struve; thus, it is most likely that he will win the fight via knockout or technical knockout.
