Click Here to Purchase MMA Targets   UFC Fight Night 93 rolls into Hamburg, Gemrany and we look to continue our hot streak at DFSR, going 6-0 over the last two weeks. OK, enough of the shameless self promotion, let's look ahead to another solid card for DFS. UFC Fight 93 sets up well on paper as there a few top fighters with name recognition that I want no part of for Daily Fantasy as well as an undercard filled with talent that the general public doesn't know much about. There is also (AGAIN) some fighters with implied value simply because their DraftKings price is nowhere near falling in line with the Vegas odds. Where are we looking for Saturday's early (11:45 AM EST Start!)? No more intro, it's fight time. Note – I’ll be checking the comments section right until lineup lockup, so let’s get the conversation going. I mean, what’s better than talking daily fantasy?   VEGAS FAVORITE ($10,500+)   No one, stay away, do not pass go, do not collect $200. There are only three guys on this card who will cost you $10,500 or more and I can't, in good conscientious, recommend any of them. Alexander Gustafsson will cost you $12,500 which is just...I mean...no. I suppose you could squeeze him in a few GPP lineups but he's cost prohibitive. Then you have Nick Hein at $10,500 who takes on Tae Hyun Bang and while he could win that fight I don't see a finish, which is what I'm looking for when you cost $10,500. Last in the group is Nicholas Dalby who has an $11,000 price tag despite being only a -175 favorite. Why, DraftKings, why? Also, I'm very high on Peter Sobotta, but we'll get to him later. So, I'll give you three quick fight predictions below but you may want to dig into the cheatsheet before rostering any of these guys. Prediction 1: Gustafsson, W - Unanimous Decision Prediction 2: Hein, W - Unanimous Decision Prediction 3: Dalby L - 1st Round TKO MID-RANGE TARGET ($9,500-$10,400) Josh Barnett ($9,700) Vegas Line: -150 Finish Prop: -104 Career Record: 34-8 UFC Record: 6-3 Record In Last 5: 3-2 Strikes Landed Per Minute:  3.15 Finishes: 8 KO / 20 Subs...

Click Here to Purchase MMA Targets I almost feel bad for this card because it has to follow UFC 202, which was completely insane - knockouts and finishes galore! If you read last week, the picks here went 3-0 and all won in the first round, a great foundation for any lineup. Turning to Saturday night's UFC on Fox 21 event, there are some big names at the top (some of which I want no part of in DFS) and more than a couple fighters making their UFC debut on the undercard. Then you have to add in another week where the DraftKings salaries just don't follow the odds. All of that leaves us plenty of room to find the stoppages and value we need, let's get to it! Note – I’ll be checking the comments section right until lineup lockup, so let’s get the conversation going. I mean, what’s better than talking daily fantasy?   VEGAS FAVORITE ($10,500+) Alessio Di Chirrico ($11,000) Vegas Line: -255 Finish Prop: +115 Career Record: 9-1 UFC Record: 0-1 Record In Last 5: 4-1 Strikes Landed Per Minute: 4.33 Finishes: 4 KO / 4 Subs / 5 First-Round Losses by Stoppage: None Last Time Out: L, Unanimous Decision - Bojan Velickovic The selections over $10,500+ aren't really exciting to me but the best of the bunch is Alessio Di Chirrico as he squares off with Garreth McLellan. This fight should stay on the feet and Di Chirrico did land 4.33 significant strikes per minute in his UFC debut. McLellan is now 34 years old and was knocked out in his last outing - the third time he's been finished in four career losses. Di Chirrico also has one of the better finish props on the card at +115 and eight of his nine career wins have come via stoppage. Salary space really shouldn't be an issue in your lineups this week and even at $11,000, I wouldn't hesitate to plug in Di Chirrico in a handful of lineups. That being said, I won't lean too heavily on the Italian, but among the higher priced options, Di Chirrico is definitely the way to go. Prediction: Di Chirrico - Unanimous Decision...

Click Here to Purchase MMA Targets It's UFC 202, throw some water bottles at each other and let's dig in to what should be an entertaining card on Saturday night. Conor McGregor and Nate Diaz are going to put on a show and I've been back and forth all week on my pick for that fight. In the end, I'm leaning towards Diaz to pull out the win - but the uncertainty will keep me from loading up. I am relatively sure the fight will have plenty of action and likely end in a finish, so I'll be stacking the main event in Cash and have exposure to both guys in GPP. But the main event is only a small part of building winning lineups so here are three more fighters I recommend for UFC 202. Note – I’ll be checking the comments section right until lineup lockup, so let’s get the conversation going. I mean, what’s better than talking daily fantasy? VEGAS FAVORITE ($10,500+) Tim Means ($10,900) Vegas Line: -440 Finish Prop: -170 Career Record: 25-7-1 UFC Record: 7-4 Record In Last 5: 4-1 Strikes Landed Per Minute: 4.03 Finishes: 17 KO / 4 Subs / 16 First-Round Losses by Stoppage: 1 KO / 3 Subs Last Time Out: W, 2nd Round KO - John Howard Sabah Homasi is being thrown into the deep end for his UFC debut as he takes on Tim Means on short notice. I'll be looking to capitalize as Means price of $10,900 is reasonable considering his -440 odds to win and -170 odds to finish the fight inside the distance. Means is an active fighter at 4.03 significant strikes landed per minute and always looks for the finish, which has lead to an 84% stoppage rate in his wins. It's also worth noting that Homasi fought just two weeks ago. All signs point to a 100+ point outing for Means and he should be a safe play in all formats. Prediction: Means - 1st Round TKO   MID-RANGE TARGET ($9,500-$10,400) Cody Garbrandt ($10,300) Vegas Line: -600 Finish Prop: -151 Career Record: 9-0 UFC Record: 4-0 Record In Last 5: 5-0 Strikes Landed Per Minute:  3.92 Finishes: 8 KO / 6 First-Round Losses by Stoppage: None Last Time Out: W, 1st Round KO - Thomas Almeida Remember a few months ago when I picked against Garbrandt?...

Click Here to Purchase MMA Lineups Back again for some more DFS MMA after an absolutely awesome night at UFC 201 - one of our GPP lineups nearly took down the Rumble in Gotham qualifier and did serious damage in every GPP it was entered in. UFC Fight Night 92 is wild form a daily fantasy perspective - I'm pretty sure someone at DraftKings posted these salaries after a few drinks or just threw darts at a giant board. There are a handful of favorites who are less expensive than their opponent, two heavyweight fights, and a fun main event so let's get to it. Note – I’ll be checking the comments section right until lineup lockup, so let’s get the conversation going. I mean, what’s better than talking daily fantasy? VEGAS FAVORITE ($10,500+) Maryna Moroz ($10,900) Vegas Line: -270 Finish Prop: +140 Career Record: 7-1 UFC Record: 2-1 Record In Last 5: 4-1 Strikes Landed Per Minute: 3.24 Finishes: 1 KO / 5 Subs / 5 First-Round Losses by Stoppage: None Last Time Out: W, Unanimous Decision - Cristina Stanciu On a really wacky card, I'm pointing towards some standard factors before loading up on Maryna Moroz. The 24-year old Ukrainian's opponent is Danielle Taylor, a UFC rookie making her debut on short notice - check and check. Moroz has proven herself to be incredibly tough, hence the nickname "The Iron Woman", and in her UFC debut she recorded a first-round submission win over standout Joanne Calderwood. Moroz's lone loss came last summer at the hands of UFC title challenger Valerie Latourneau.  Moroz should simply out-class Taylor, who has not been that dominant even at the regional circuit. I'm a little worried about the output in this fight if Moroz doesn't get a finish - but I just don't see this one getting out of the first round. Moroz is a solid option in all formats and is much more affordable than Teruto Ishihara, who's priced at $11,500 Prediction: Moroz - 1st Round TKO   MID-RANGE TARGET ($9,500-$10,400) Marcin Tybura ($9,500) Vegas Line: -140 Finish Prop: +124 Career Record: 13-2 UFC Record: 0-1 Record In Last 5: 3-2 Strikes Landed Per Minute:  3.20 Finishes: 5 KO / 6 Subs / 9 First-Round Losses by Stoppage: 1 KO Last Time Out: L, Unanimous Decision - Timothy Johnson So....Marcin Tybura is a...

Just click the button below, this is a separate service than our traditional monthly membership. Click Here to Purchase MMA Lineups This is the kind of card that gets me fired up about Daily Fantasy MMA - lots of great fights and a good sized prize pool on DraftKings. Robbie Lawler takes on Tyron Woodley in a really interesting main event as Lawler has been in thrilling war after war over the last two years. On the other hand, Woodley is in action for the first time in over a year as he finally gets his title shot after his previously scheduled shot at the strap was cancelled because Johnny Hendricks takes his life into his own hands whenever he cuts weight. But it's not just the main event that should deliver excitement on this card - but who are the building blocks for Daily Fantasy? Let's dig in. Note – I’ll be checking the comments section right until lineup lockup, so let’s get the conversation going. I mean, what’s better than talking daily fantasy? VEGAS FAVORITE ($10,500+) Matt Brown ($10,900) Vegas Line: -325 Finish Prop: -173 Career Record: 20-14 UFC Record: 13-8 Record In Last 5: 2-3 Strikes Landed Per Minute: 3.61 Finishes: 12 KO / 6 Subs / 8 First-Round Losses by Stoppage: 10 Subs Last Time Out: L, 3rd Round Submission (RNC) - Demian Maia Jake Ellenberger sucks. Oh, and Matt Brown is good...but really, Jake Ellenberger sucks. Matt "The Immortal" Brown is the second biggest favorite on the card at -325 (I expect that to move up by fight time) and the most likely to finish his opponent, who sucks, at a -173 prop bet. Brown is coming off a submission loss to Demian Maia, who is closing in on a title shot of his own, and Brown's other two losses in his last 11 fights have come via decision against the last two Welterweight champions. Put simply, Brown has been performing well against the top of the division and the same is not true of Ellenberger...who if you haven't caught on by now, is not someone I think highly of. Ellenberger is 2-5 in his last seven outings and those two wins came against guys who were way past their prime in Josh Koscheck and Nate Marquardt. He has also been finished three times in his last five fights and I expect Brown to...
