UFC Catchweight (165lb) Main Event Bout
Saturday, October 23, 2021 – 11:06 PM EDT at the Apex Centre
The UFC’s middleweight contender’s steal the spotlight in this weekend’s UFC in Vegas 41 main event. Still, the true winner is Marvin Vettori, as he’s already claimed 20% of Costa’s fight purse due to the Brazilian’s complicated weight cut. Marvin Vettori (17-4-0) will enter the UFC octagon for his twelfth UFC bout spanning five years of fighting at the highest level of the sport.
With two losses to the current champion Israel Adesanya, it could be a long road before Vettori can claim another title opportunity. A great way to start is by defeating the number two ranked fighter of the division.
Paulo Costa (13-1-0) will make his long-awaited return after suffering from a knockout loss to, yeah, you guessed it, the current middleweight champion Israel Adesanya. A failure to achieve cutting enough weight to fight at the middleweight limit has already gifted Vettori the first advantage. This aspect leaves numerous questions surrounding Costa’s professionalism within the sport.
Let’s cut to the chase; Paulo Costa’s twelve-fight pro-MMA win streak that gifted a title opportunity was centred around pressure, power, and the first ten minutes of his contests. Outside of the 40-year-old Yoel Romero, Costa owned zero experience in surviving the test of time. A huge factor when facing such a workhouse like "The Italian Dream".
The available UFC odds with Bookmakers Review opened with Marvin Vettori as the betting favourite for a good reason; once the Italian born fighter outmanoeuvres Costa’s early assault, he’s going to put a massive strain on the Brazilian’s gas tank.
Vettori’s striking defence was on full display against the champion, and he’s yet to be finished inside the distance from twenty-two pro bouts.
The value is with Vettori until the betting line reaches the -200 mark. This particular parlay piece adds immense value whilst giving us the chance to support a higher probability elsewhere on the card.

UFC Lightweight Main Event Bout
Saturday, October 23, 2021 - 11:06 PM EDT at the Apex Centre
Kharma Worthy (16-8-0) has become a notable name amongst UFC fans and critics for his huge +640 underdog victory during his UFC debut versus Devonte Smith.
Technical boxing skills are certainly present within Worthy’s skillset, and a guillotine choke over Luis Pena for his second UFC contest created yet another underdog winning position.
Great Britain’s own Jai Herbert (10-3-0) will make his third octagon appearance for the promotion with a two-fight losing streak; however, this doesn’t represent the kickboxing prowess in which Herbert has displayed throughout his professional career.
Having the savvy veteran Francisco Trinaldo and the ever-dangerous Renato Moicano as your introduction to the UFC seemed like the company wanted Herbert to lose.
With a significant drop in competition level, Herbert can certainly find himself a victory this weekend.
With that said, I’m not interested in picking a side as both men present common features. Neither of them enjoys the judges’ scorecards. From a collective of thirty-seven professional bouts, only four of their respective fights have made it to a decision.
The available UFC odds at the top-rated sportsbooks are slightly juiced towards this contest ending inside the distance, which comes as no surprise. Let’s take our chances on yet another stoppage between two men who have a kill or be killed attitude.
