You know who always lets us down? Conor McGregor. But you know who never does? Underdog Fantasy. Aside from the fantastic deposit match up to $250 for new users, Underdog is also not shy about giving out sitewide specials — aka massive discounts on player projections for ALL users, not just new signups. As we creep towards UFC 303 in the wake of McGregor bailing due to an injured toe, we must find excitement in other ways. That is why we are turning our attention to this Underdog Fantasy promo for UFC 303 starring the great Alex Pereira as he takes on Jiri Prochazka.
Underdog Fantasy UFC 303 Promo: Pereira-Prochazka Special
The UFC 303 card has been in major flux for weeks now with the cancellation of Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler; enter the UFC’s newest golden boy, Alex Pereira.
Pereira now steps into the UFC 303 Main Event on a three-fight win streak, with his last one being a title defense over Jamahal Hill to close UFC 300. It was one of the coldest knockouts of the year, by the way, if you haven’t seen it.
To add to the fun of Pereira topping the UFC 303 card, this weekend’s fight is a rematch against the guy he beat to win the vacant light heavyweight championship at UFC 295, Jiri Prochazka. Prochazka has as many canceled fights as wins over the last 3 1/2 years, so Pereira is definitely the hotter fighter right now.
But why are we dragging our feet with logistics? This Underdog sitewide special requires one thing and one thing only: Pereira hitting Prochazka once — just once.
Every single one of Pereira’s wins inside the distance in the UFC have been via striking; he is going to get at least one shot in on Prochazka. And then, after Pereira gets us our higher win, we can sit back and wait for the knockout blow!
Of course, we still need at least one more Underdog pick to submit an entry. Heading to the Pick’em Fantasy Optimizer, we can find another pick from any sport to add.
Today we’ll pair Pereira higher than 0.5 strikes with an MLB play because it is currently the highest-EV pick on the board. Christopher Morel lower than 1.5 total bases has a 57% chance of winning, and given Underdog’s implied odds of -121, the True Odds of -131 for this lower play makes it +EV by a solid 3.5%.
A +EV entry plus Alex Pereira in the main event? Sounds like a good way to spend a weekend. If you want to boost your payout potential even more, keep adding picks! You will get better acquainted with Underdog’s payout structure — including the NEW Pick8 Flex plays — and strategy for building +EV entries as you get more involved.
