Betting Klidson Abreu
Abreu will hold the mantle of the underdog in this one, per the best online sportsbooks. He was the champion in Brave CF, and had won six straight when he was signed by the UFC. He’s 1-2 in his new promotion, having gone the distance in all three fights. He’s got a decision victory over Sam Alvey and losses to Magomed Ankalaev and Shamil Gamzatov. Abreu (15-4) is a former Brave CF champion. He joined the UFC on the strength of a six-fight finishing streak. American Top Team’s “Russian Terror” currently possesses a 1-2 record in the UFC with a decision victory over Sam Alvey in between decision losses to Magomed Ankalaev and Shamil Gamzatov. The Brazilian fighter was initially slated to face Gadzhimurad Antigulov at UFC Kazakhstan on June 13, but the event was canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The 27-year-old fighter will be looking to get back in the black. After splitting his first two UFC bouts, Abreu lost a close November 2019 split decision to Shamil Gamzatov. Abreu was previously scheduled to fight Gadzhimurad Antigulov as part of the UFC’s June 13 debut in Kazakhstan, before the global coronavirus outbreak. If you ask Abreu, he “did not lose” to Gamzatov. “I don’t know where the judges saw him attacking me more. The first round was mine; I even opened his head. The second round was clearly mine. He won the third, but it wasn’t by that much. I think it was 2-1 for me.”
Betting Jamahal Hill
Sweet Dreams will be the favorite du jour according to top UFC betting sites. Hill is 7-0 as a professional. That includes a win at Uncle Dana’s Contender Series in July. Hill’s only UFC result so far has been a unanimous decision over Darko Stosic in January. On that occasion he had 101 significant strikes compared to just 31 for his opponent in the three-round fight. Hill (7-0) earned a place in the UFC after stopping Alexander Poppeck via TKO last July. He then beat Darko Stosic by decision in his first appearance under the UFC banner. Three of his seven wins have come by way of stoppage. Hill (7-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) will return to action for the first time since a successful UFC debut at UFC on ESPN+ 24 in January. On that night, Hill bested Darko Stosic by unanimous decision.
Hill enjoyed a successful UFC debut back at UFC Fight Night 166 when he defeated Darko Stosic via unanimous decision. Before his appearance on Dana White’s Contender Series, where he picked up a victory over Alexander Poppeck by second-round TKO, the light heavyweight competed in Lights Out Championship and Knockout Promotions. Hill’s professional record currently stands at 7 wins and no losses. “Ever since I was young, when I was a kid, I always knew whatever I decided that I was going to do, I was going to be great at it,” Hill said. “I could be good or just as good as anybody. That’s just the confidence and belief I have in myself, so once mixed martial arts came along and I started working on it, started tweaking things like that, it’s like, all right, this is what I was going to do.”
Our Pick:
Abreu is not only currently a loser, but also a sore loser. Hill has all the momentum coming in, and users of top UFC betting sites should back him up.
