LAS VEGAS – The UFC Apex will host yet another event this weekend, this time headlined by Rob Font and Jose Aldo. Prop betting lines for the event have been released and some seem to carry more value than others.
Rob Font Vs. Jose Aldo: Fight To Go The Distance
The main event on Saturday should be an exciting fight to watch as Jose Aldo and Rob Font compete against one another in an attempt to get closer to a title shot in the bantamweight division. Although the fight should have a lot of action, online sportsbooks may be leaving too much value on the fight to go the distance.
Aldo vs Font To Go The Distance
- Yes -135
- No +105
Font has seen four of his last five fights go the distance, losing the ability to finish opponents as he starts to fight the upper echelon of the division. Aldo is much of the same, with four of his last five fights reaching the final bell as well. Font has never been knocked out in his career while Aldo has been finished just five times in his 37 professional bouts.
Rafael Fiziev Vs. Brad Riddell: Fight To Go The Distance
Rafael Fiziev and Brad Riddell are two of the biggest up-and-comers in the lightweight division and will fight each other on Saturday night. Despite the potential fireworks in this fight, there’s a good chance that the two see the fight go to the scorecards.
Fiziev vs Riddell To go The Distance
- Yes -185
- No +150
Riddell has had each of his last five fights reach a decision while Fiziev has gone to the scorecards in three of his last four fights. Fiziev is a fighter that loves to get in up-tempo firefights, but Riddell may focus on getting the fight to the mat as he averages 2.00 takedowns per 15 minutes and is likely the better grappler.

Alonzo Menifield Vs. William Knight: Knight By KO
William Knight is a pure knockout artist. He’ll be trying to make Alonzo Menifield his next victim on Saturday and carries value on his prop betting lines. Knight is only +140 on the moneyline, but UFC betting sites are offering significantly more value on him to win by knockout.
Method Of Victory Odds
- Knight By KO +300
- Knight By Submission +950
- Knight By Decision +575
- Menifield By KO +185
- Menifield By Submission +575
- Menifield By Decision +300
Knight has 10 professional wins, nine of which have come by knockout. Plus, Menifield’s last loss was by knockout to a then-37-year-old Ovince Saint Preux. Getting someone who almost only wins by knockout at +300 when they’re only +140 on the moneyline is worth betting even if you don’t think he’ll win.
The main card will start at 10 p.m. EST on Saturday night and can be seen on ESPN and ESPN+.
