The UFC is putting on a stacked fight night event at the UFC Apex on Saturday, July 20th.
In the main event, two top-ranked strawweight challengers Amanda Lemos and Virna Jandiroba are set to throw down as they look to come away with the win and title aspirations this weekend.
This exciting fight night should be exhilarating for the fight fans and should have plenty of value betting-wise, so let's take a look at the prop bets for this UFC Vegas 94 fight card.
Best Prop Odds: Amanda Lemos by KO/TKO (+255) BetRivers Sportsbook
Amanda Lemos comes into this fight off a win against Mackenzie Dern who she was able to beat up on the feet quite soundly after defending the majority of her takedowns. Now, Lemos gets to come into this matchup as the heavy-handed striker against another submission grappler.
Jandiroba is a game opponent who's shown the ability to take punches and then take her opponents down and submit them. However, she's giving up size in the clinch here, and a massive discrepancy in the striking.
How Lemos was able to keep herself safe from being submitted by the likes of Zhang Weili and Mackenzie Dern means that she should be able to keep herself out of harm's way barring no lack of fight IQ. If Lemos is able to defend the takedowns and keep this fight on the feet, she should be able to finish Jandiroba as they get into the championship rounds.
Best Prop Odds: Loik Radzhabov by Decision (+210) FanDuel Sportsbook
Loik Radzhabov spent most of his time fighting over in the PFL before making his UFC debut where he outworked newcomer Esteban Ribovics. He is now 1-1 in his next two fights most recently getting the third-round knockout over Abdul-Kareem Al-Selwady.
Radzhabov will be taking on fellow lightweight Trey Ogden who's had some mixed results in the UFC so far but is coming off a dominant decision victory over Kurt Holobaugh in his last fight. "The Tajik Tank" will need to do what he does best and that is land heavy strikes on the feet as well as mix in the takedowns to overwhelm Ogden.
As long as his cardio doesn't fail him and he can land the takedowns and not get taken down himself he can walk away with his second victory in a row on the judge's scorecards.
Best Prop Odds: Kaynan Kruschewsky by Decision (+320) Bet365 Sportsbook
Kaynan Kruchewsky got his contract on the Contender Series and then made his short-notice debut up a weight class against the dangerous Elves Brener who brutally flatlined him in the first round. He will now be searching for his first victory when he takes on Kurt Holobaugh this weekend at UFC Vegas 94.
Holobaugh was the TUF winner from last year who got the win against fellow lightweight competitor Austin Hubbard whom he subbed via triangle choke. However, his debut fight didn't go quite as well as he was out-grappled by Trey Ogden en route to a decision loss.
Kruchewsky is going to go to war with Holobaugh in this matchup looking to take his head off as well as mix in the takedowns to do damage. While Holobaugh is certainly dangerous on the feet and on the mat with cardio for days, Kruschewsky will be the one who will be landing the more impact shots throughout the fight.
As long as Kruschewsky can mix his strikes with his takedowns and conserve his energy without gassing he can outwork Holobaugh for the vast majority of the fight to take the nod on the judge's scorecards.
