Daily Fantasy MMA Picks for UFC Fight Night 83 – 2/20/16

Daily Fantasy MMA Picks for UFC Fight Night 83 - 2/20/16 Editor's Note: Welcome MMA contributor Shaun Ihasz. Give him a follow on Twitter @ShaunEyeHas We’re back after a huge 5-1 outing two weeks ago, including four wins by stoppage. Now we are staring at the barrel of three straight weeks of Fantasy MMA. What could be better!? Let the excitement fade because the start of this stretch could be a complete snooze fest. UFC Fight Night 83 is tricky up and down the lineup with something, in terms of fantasy, that bothers me about most of the favorites. With that said, I changed the format of the picks this week…let’s try and duplicate our last showing and make some more money. Playing other daily fantasy sports like NBA or NHL.

Click here to sign up Vegas Favorites Chris Camozzi ($10,500) Tons of experience in this one as Camozzi and Joe Riggs have combined for 89 professional MMA fights. Camozzi’s 22 wins are 19 less than Riggs, but he’s simply the better fighter. Camozzi is a UFC veteran, 3-1 in his last four fights with two opening round stoppages. Riggs has bounced around the other promotions throughout his career and is lucky to still be in the UFC.  He’s 1-2 since joining the promotion in December of 2014 but that win came via DQ thanks to an illegal upkick. Camozzi should dispatch Riggs and send him out of the UFC - roster him in all formats. Cody Garbrandt ($11,000) I have a huge amount of love for Cody “No Love” Garbrandt, the undefeated 24-year old is 7-0 with six career finishes. Garbrandt is 2-0 in the UFC and this could be the fight where he gets his first early stoppage in the big time. The young bantamweight draws UFC newbie and BJJ specialist Augusto Mendes. Menden can be dangerous and holds a 5-0 record with four submission victories. I don’t think he’ll have that success with Garbrandt and “No Love” gives you a great chance at the 100 point first-round win bonus. Marion Reneau ($10,300) Reneau had a five fight win streak snapped in her last outing, but that came against the newly crowned queen of MMA, Holly Holm. “The Bruiser” has four wins by stoppage in her last six fights and is 2-1 in her UFC career. Her experience should come in handy in this fight and the 38 year old needs to make something happen now if she ever hopes to get into the title picture. This pick...
