UFC Fight Night 167: Anderson vs Blachowicz 2 | Bet Pack Review
Kamikaze Overdrive Premium Bet Pack
Parlays & Single Bets
Depending on your betting style, you can select the Hardcore Betting Cluster which employs a betting strategy focussed on straight and 2-leg parlays that limit the risk and offer a decent return based on your financial commitment. If you are willing to take a little more risk and aren’t interested in putting as much cash in play, but still want a shot at a big return- then the Casual Betting Cluster is for you. Playing both of these strategies together is not recommended.

Betting Breakdowns
Corey Anderson -210 vs Jan Blachowicz +175
- For the first bout Anderson was a slight dog, but fought a near-perfect fight for the win (I got that one right- those were the days 😉
- The line was much closer with Anderson around -145 at the open, but he dropped to nearly -200 inside the first couple of days
- Both men have improved, but unless Jan can score the stoppage, which is rare for him- Anderson will use his cardio and wrestling to outwork for the duration.
- Gold play.
Prop Bet:
- No Play.
DK Lineup:
- I have Anderson in my lineup. He could score a stoppage, he could put up some decent volume, and hid takedown stats should be between 4 and 6 which will produce points. Maybe a combination of all of them. Add him.
Michel Pereira -163 vs Diego Sanchez +145
- I’m a little shocked that Pereira is a dog considering how poorly he performed in his last fight.
- His style is not built for this level of competition…..if he can’t get the finish.
- The line has had almost no movement which tells us that bettors are split.
- Diego is a tough out with good gas tank and grinding top game.
- Silver play for Sanchez.
Prop Bet:
- No Play.
DK Lineup:
- Sanchez has shown he can finish from top position and if Michel gets tired under the pressure and conditions, he could be put away. If not, Diego lands takedowns and volume at a cheap price.
Mara Romero Borella +160 vs Montana De La Rosa -170
- Borella quit in her last fight, took a couple of flush shots and went down when she was ahead. Conversely, DLR took a beating and went for a full 15-minutes.
- We are getting some value here as the line was over the -215.
- Borella has relied on takedowns in each of her fights and even then they are close, that won’t be an option here against a better wrestler/ grappler.
- Love De La Rosa here!
- Gold Play.
Prop Bet:
- Montana De La Rosa to Win by Submission +410
- This is a must-play considering the odds and that all 3 of Montana’s UFC wins have come by sub.
- Montana will get to Borella’s back and lock up an RNC or catch her in an armbar/triangle following a sloppy TD.
DK Lineup:
- Montana is fighter you could easily sub in and out with Anderson. I like Corey because of the 5-rounds, but I would use them almost evenly across the boar.
Kazula Vargas +225 vs Brok Weaver -275
- This is an easy pass for me considering the other options we have on the card.
- A debuting fighter against a sophomore- no thank you.
- No Play.
Prop Bet:
- Brok Weaver to Win Inside the Distance +295
- Weaver doesn’t have great finishing numbers and Vargas has only been stopped once in his career.
- All that considered, Weaver’s pressure-based style, wrestling, and Vargas’s vulnerability to TDD are major keys to a finish.
DK Lineup:
- I like Weaver to get the stoppage, but he is a little too expensive at this point.
- Considering his price and lack of overall finishes, it is encouraging for the stoppage prop.
Rogerio Bontorin +135 vs Ray Borg -141
- Borg missed weight…again. He is 2-1 when missing weight, dropping his last fight.
- Both of his early wins came against fighters with minimal success in the Octagon.
- Bontorin appears to have the grappling to match/nullify/capitalize on Borg.
- If any of those scenarios play out, add in Rogerio’s more active striking attack and he is in a good spot here.
- Ray talked about retiring if he missed weight again. That type of distraction could impact his performance.
- Line movement has been minimal.
- Bontorin is a strong Silver play.
Prop Bet:
- Rogerio Bontorin to Win By Decision +255
- Borg is a tough out and this should be a close fight.
- We most likely won’t see a sub either way, and knockout is unlikely too.
- Take it on the cards.
DK Lineup:
- No Play.
Yancy Medeiros +105 vs Lando Vannata -110
- This should be a pretty fun fight regardless of what happens.
- Medeiros is more active on the feet and has had more success at this level.
- Vannata is more durable and has fought more recently.
- I still like Yancy to outwork him if he doesn’t get knocked out.
- Yancy was nearly at -200 earlier in the week, so we are getting a solid deal.
- I’m going all in here.
- Gold Play.
Prop Bet:
- No Play.
DK Lineup:
- Vannata is pretty durable.
- Pass.
Tim Means -305 vs Daniel Rodriguez +255
- This is an easy pass as well.
- Late notice replacement, but a veteran fighter moving up a division.
- Sometimes Means can make fights closer than needed.
- No Play.
Prop Bet:
- See the Betting Scenario Section.
DK Lineup:
- No Play.
John Dodson +135 vs Nathaniel Wood -145
- Dodson has been defeated by top-level competition- where does Wood fight into the equation.
- With Dodson’s stellar TDD and ability to avoid strikes, that will limit Wood’s ability to find success.
- The Brit needs to bring pressure which he will, but I think Dodson capitalizes on his willingness to get hit.
- Wood’s chin is far from uncrackable.
- Bronze play.
Prop Bet:
- No Play.
DK Lineup:
- Dodson is affordable and has stopping power.
- Wood has been knocked out once and hurt in a couple of UFC bouts.
- Dodson could find a return to his finishing ways and if he does he is a bargain.
Scott Holtzman -132 vs Jim Miller +126
- This should be a good fight.
- Miller has the skill set to capitalize on the grappling issues that have plagued Holtzman.
- Jim has shown he beats pretty much anyone not ranked in the top 15 of the division.
- Close fight on the feet, but Miller will capitalize on the mat.
- He was a slight favourite (-125) when the line opened.
- Bronze play.
Prop Bet:
- Jim Miller to Win by Submission +400
- Miller has scored subs in each of his last 3 wins.
- If he can take Holtzman down, look for him to get to his back and set up a sub.
- The line is solid- make an investment.
DK Lineup:
- As previously mentioned, Miller is a finisher on the mat and at $8000 he is a solid add.
- Add him.
Devin Clark -400 vs Dequan Townsend +300
- No play here. Not worth the risk considering Townsend has more avenues to victory than the line suggests.
Prop Bet:
- Devin Clark to Win by Decision -110
- This isn’t flashy, but it is worth a look.
- Townsend is not easy to finish and while Clark has some power he can be a grinder.
- Look for Clark to exploit his TDD and hold clinch and top position for the duration of the fight.
DK Lineup:
- No Play.
Merab Dvalishvili -160 vs Casey Kenney +160
- Do you pick the fighter that lands a lot of takedowns, but has lost a couple of those fights?
- Or do you pick the fighter that has been taken down a lot, but he has found a way to win?
- I think Kenney’s success runs out eventually, especially against the volume of Merab.
- We were nearly at even which I understand. I consider this fight for a Gold play, but knocked it down one notch.
- Silver play.
Prop Bet:
- Merab Dvalishvili to Win by Decision +110
- Merab hasn’t proven himself to be a finisher at this level, and these two match up fairly evenly.
- Embrace the grind that will take the full 15-minutes.
DK Lineup:
- While he isn’t a finisher he has scored in the 70s in his 2 defeats and 90s in his 2 wins.
- Takedowns, a lot of takedowns is his path to point product and Kenney can be taken down.
- Add him.
Macy Chiasson -725 vs Shanna Young +600
- Chiasson laid an egg last time out. She should win but, nothing worth betting SU.
- No Play.
Prop Bet:
- See the Betting Scenario section.
DK Lineup:
- When Chiasson wins, it is usually by finish.
- I think she is motivated here and Young is hittable and overmatched physically.
- Add her.
Mark De La Rosa +215 vs Raulian Paiva -227
- Paiva is 0-2 in the UFC after a couple of unfortunate scenarios.
- De La Rosa could grind this one out if he can take Paiva down- that is a big if.
- I will consider Paiva as an addon in the Bronze section or a No Play.
- This will be a fun fight. Tread carefully.
Prop Bet:
- See the Betting Scenario section.
DK Lineup:
- No Play.

Betting Scenario
Scenario Breakdowns
The section will always be a work in progress, as I hopefully continue to find different scenarios that produce consistent winners. Click the names below to read each scenario’s explanation.
C. Daniel Cormier
#1 Jon Jones
EPU Candidate(s)
1. Macy Chiasson to Win by TKO/KO +115
Young is just too hittable for Chiasson not to get her out of there. My biggest concern here is that we can a sub out of Chiasson to thwart this play.
2. Mark De La Rosa/Raulian Paiva
This is a No play. I expect a decision, but nothing certain here.

FPO Candidate
1. Tim Means vs Daniel Rodriguez
I considered backing a Means decision win, but I think this is better left alone considering the uncertainty surrounding Rodriguez.
