Action PRO's top UFC edge won yet again last when underdog Paul Costa pulled off the upset against Azamat Murzakanov at UFC 327, cashing for us at +190 odds.
We now turn our attention to Saturday's UFC Fight Night: Burns vs. Malott at the Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg, Canada, headlined by veteran Gilbert Burns taking on surging Canadian star Mike Malott.
Gilbert "Durinho" Burns enters the Octagon in a rare position, looking to snap a four-fight losing streak and prove he still belongs among the division's elite at 39 years old.
Despite the recent skid, Burns remains one of the most dangerous grapplers and powerful punchers in the weight class, having tested himself against the very best like Kamaru Usman and Khamzat Chimaev.
Standing across from him is Mike Malott, who carries the hopes of his home nation as he headlines his first UFC event.
Malott has momentum on his side, entering the contest on a three-fight winning streak that includes a notable victory over Kevin Holland.
While Burns relies on his championship-level experience and world-class Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Malott brings well-rounded finishing ability and a significant age advantage, making him a clear favorite based on current UFC odds.
The co-main event features another Canadian standout, Charles Jourdain, taking on Kyler Phillips in a bantamweight battle expected to deliver high-paced action.
The main card also highlights the promotional debut of Mandel Nallo, a Tristar Gym product with a 100% finishing rate who earned his spot through Dana White’s Contender Series.
Nallo faces veteran Jai Herbert in a lightweight bout that many experts predict will not see the judges' scorecards.
Action PRO's projections are keying in on two huge prediction edges for Saturday's UFC Fight Night, including one in which the wrong fighter is favored.
Let's take a look.
