UFC Fight Night 155 is on ESPN+ and headlined by Germaine de Randamie, so it doesn’t have a whole lot going for it. But hey, Urijah Faber is back! Anyway, that’s why we have DFS.
I use DraftKings for my UFC daily fantasy fix, so if you don’t have an account you can sign up here (and get a 50% bonus on your initial deposit). Also, you can check out the scoring criteria here. Now let’s get down to business.
Value Picks
- Cezar Ferreira ($7,600) is a real test for his opponent, Marvin Vettori. Vettori is young enough that he might have made enough improvements to take this, but I think that Ferreira will be able to dictate the pace of this one. And I’ll take it at that price.
- Benito Lopez ($7,700) is tons of fun, as his answer to everything is basically to punch his opponent in the face. Let’s open the card with an inexpensive barnburner.
Avoid
- I think Julianna Pena ($9,000) is awesome, but I’m not spending that kind of cap space on a fighter who hasn’t fought in 2 1/2 years. And her opponent, Nicco Montano, is surprisingly underrated. I’m going to sit this one out.
- I really don’t understand the pricing for Vince Morales ($8,500). He’s solid, but lacks fight-ending power, and he’s facing off against the above mentioned Benito Lopez. I’ll pass.
