Its another fight night. I've been missing most of these lately and that sorta sucks because I enjoy the fight prediction game. Some weeks better than others but hopefully this week the leverage plays pan out because I'm here to win.

Getting a first look. It would appear that this week, the main event is a lock play situation. I may just take the chalk and go above the field here but when I say lock, i mean every lineup should have either Jiri or Teixiera in it from the looks of things. Ownership shifts later can allow for another fighter to stand out later on.
When we use power bi to plot odds vs salary, we start seeing Jiri in a dominant position in just about every view. This goes against my typical strategy of playing the underdog in the main event but I may struggle to do anything otherwise.
The standouts by themselves. Fialho is the highest odds lowest owned guy so you know Im going there.
If you are a projections type, here is my attempt at finding who might score better than others. We will need to look into which underdogs make the most sense, as thats where the true MMA value happens. Will dive in more soon.
Picked out a couple guys I think have the most potential below. Shevchenko has a ton of upside and is popular but that is also why she is filtered out of here.
