A pair of new UFC faces will open tonight’s action when Christian Aguilera faces Anthony Ivy at UFC Fight Night on ESPN+. But is there a quality DFS angle for this fight?
DraftKings DFS Values
Anthony Ivy: $9,000
Christian Aguilera: $7,200
Ivy is -190 on the money line, with Aguilera the underdog at +150
Ivy is getting the bigger price, and his 8-2 career record comes with five KO’s and three submissions. The former Fury FC and World Extreme Cagefighting participant has won five in a row, but when he does lose it’s often not pretty as he’s got two first-round tap outs.
Aguilera is 13-6 with 10 KO’s and no submissions. “The Beast” from Brea, California mostly has competed in the Legacy Fighting Alliance, and his last bout was a unanimous decision over Glaucio Eliziario.
Ivy’s stopping power and Aguilera’s lack of submission wins would seem to have this fight in favor of the favorite. If you have this fight on your roster, Ivy would appear to be the best place to spend your salary cap.
