Ryan LaFlare vs. Alex Oliveira
Weight class: Welter
Online gambling odds:
Alex Oliveira – 2½ (-245) +158
Ryan LaFlare – 2½ (+205) -180
LaFlare rebounded from his first career loss – a unanimous decision to Demian Maia at Fight Night: Maia vs. LaFlare on March 21, 2015 in Rio – with back-to-back wins over Mike Pierce at The Ultimate Fighter: Team McGregor vs. Team Faber Finale on December 11, 2015 in Las Vegas and Roan Carneiro at UFC 208 this February in Brooklyn to improve his overall record to 13-1 and his UFC record to 6-1. LaFlare is a former Ring of Combat Welterweight Champion.
Oliveira is coming off a submission win in his grudge match with Tim Means at Fight Night: Belfort vs. Gastelum this March in Brazil. He is undefeated in his last four straight fights and is 6-2 (1) in the UFC.
Damian Grabowski vs. Chase Sherman UFC Betting Preview
Weight class: Heavy
Odds for fans who bet on UFC:
Damian Grabowski – 1½ (+110) +180
Chase Sherman – 1½ (-150) -220
Grabowski has not made a smooth transition from the European fighting circuit, losing his first two UFC fights Derrick Lewis by TKO at Fight Night: Hendricks vs. Thompson in Vegas and to Anthony Hamilton via KO at UFC 201 on July 30, 2016 in Atlanta. Add to that a slow turnaround; he was pulled out of Fight Night 103 this January for undisclosed reasons and then his Fight Night 109 with Christian Colombo was rescheduled. Eventually Colombo was replaced with Chase Sherman. Speaking of whom…
Sherman also made his promotional debut with back-to-back losses – to Justin Ledet at Fight Night: Rodríguez vs. Caceres on August 6, 2016 in Utah and Walt Harris at Fight Night: Rodríguez vs. Penn this January in Phoenix. However, he bounced back with a KO win over Rashad Coulter at UFC 211 in May in Dallas.
Kyle Bochniak vs. Jeremy Kennedy UFC Betting Preview
Weight class: Feather
Odds for fans who bet on UFC:
‘Crash’ Bochniak lost his UFC debut and had his first career loss to Charles Rosa at Fight Night: Dillashaw vs. Cruz on January 17, 2016 in Boston but rebounded with a win over Enrique Barzola at UFC on Fox: Maia vs. Condit on August 27, 2016 in Canada. However, he has not fought since then; he was expected to face Godofredo Pepey on March 11, 2017 at Fight Night 106 but both fighters pulled out and the bout was scrapped.
Kennedy is unbeaten in ten fights (three by KO, two by submission, and five by decision, including the last four straight) including his first two in the UFC – both UD wins over Alessandro Ricci at UFC on Fox 21 on August 27, 2016 in Vancouver and Rony Jason Fight Night 106 in Brazil. Kennedy is a former BFL Featherweight Champion.
