Parisian vs Pogues Prediction
Josh Parisian's UFC run has been a mixed bag thus far. Though he secured a second-round TKO win over Alan Baudot in his last outing, Parisian has yet to win back-to-back fights in the promotion, going 0-2 in outings following a victory.
Meanwhile, Jamal Pogues has won five of his last six fights and is coming off a unanimous decision win over Paulo Renato Jr. in his UFC debut. While he has similar striking numbers to Parisian, Pogues has the distinct mat advantage, averaging 3.5 takedowns per 15 minutes with 53% accuracy and 100% defense.
Due to Parisian's inability to win back-to-back fights at the UFC level, I like Pogues' chances of winning this weekend. He's going to wear Parisiain down the longer the fight goes and if he can get the latter on the mat, it'll be as good as over.
Parisian vs Pogues Best Bet
Moneyline is the only betting option at the moment, making a'Pogues outright win at -245 odds'the best bet for now. Make sure to check back on FanDuel Sportsbook leading up to UFC Vegas 69 for more playable options.
