Bellator 241: Pitbull vs Carvalho
Daniel Weichel vs Emmanuel Sanchez
- Bellator Odds: Weichel +130 / Sanchez -150
Weichel is not short on experience. Daniel has fought 51 times. He’s won 40 of those bouts. But in recent fights, he hasn’t stepped it up. Weichel is 1-2 in his last couple of bouts. Expect the 19-4 Sanchez, winner of 6-of-7, to take this fight.
Bellator Betting Pick: Emmanuel Sanchez
Paul Daley vs Sabah Homasi
- Bellator Odds: Daley -390 / Homasi +305
42-17-2 Paul Daley brings massive experience into his battle with Sabah Homasi. Since losing 3-of-4, Daley has won 2 in a row. But although he’s the big time chalk, Homasi could challenge him here. At 13-8, Homasi doesn’t have the experience Daley has. But he performed great in his last fight, a TKO over Micah Terrill in 17 seconds. Give Homasi a chance.
Bellator Betting Pick: Sabah Homasi
Matt Mitrione vs Ronney Markes
- Bellator Odds: Mitrione -170 / Markes +145
MMA fans know the name Matt Mitrione. At one time, Mitrione dominated opponents. He even beat Fedor Emelianenko and Roy Nelson in back-to-back fights. Nowadays, Matt’s treading water. He heads into this battle on a 3-match losing streak. Still, Mitrione faces an opponent over which he towers. Back Matt.
Bellator Betting Pick: Matt Mitrione
Anatoly Tokov vs Fabio Aguiar
- Bellator Odds: Tokov -1010 / Aguiar +705
Does Aguiar have any shot versus Tokov? Tokov is 28-2. He’s also versatile. Anatoly has won via submission, knockout, and via decision. It’s hard to swallow the odds, but Anatoly looks like a sure thing.
Bellator Betting Pick: Anatoly Tokov
Nick Newell vs Zach Zane
- Bellator Odds: Newell -210 / Zane +175
Newell offers low odds to take down Zach Zane. The 16-3 favorite lost to Manny Muro via decision in his last bout. He did beat Corey Browning back in August. Zane is 11-7. He’s gone 2-2 in his last 4 bouts. That gives Newell the edge.
Bellator Betting Pick: Nick Newell -210
Patricio Pitbull Freire vs Pedro Carvalho
- Bellator Odds: Freire -860 / Carvalho +610
On paper, it looks as if Pedro Carvalho can hang with Patricio Freire. Carvalho is 11-3. He’s got 4-inches on Pitbull. But Freire is 30-4 and hasn’t lost since 2016. Also, look who beat him back then? Benson Henderson. Pitbull’s experience against top competition should be too much for Carvalho. Go with Freire.
Bellator Betting Pick: Patricio “Pitbull” Freire
