Curtis Blaydes vs. Tom Aspinall Odds and Pick
English-born Tom Aspinall hopes to delight his fellow countrymen with a win at The O2 in his match against Chicago’s Curtis “The Razor” Blaydes. Aspinall is the No. 4-ranked heavyweight, and Blaydes is No. 5, making this bout a possible step toward one of them getting a title shot.
The 29-year-old Aspinall is a former British Open champion in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and also has top skills in wrestling and mixed martial arts techniques. He will give Blaydes all he can handle. DraftKings has Aspinall favored at -135 against the 31-year-old Blaydes (+115).
Our Pick: Tom Aspinall

Jack Hermansson vs. Chris Curtis Odds and Pick
It’s been a while since we had a fight with two nicknames that match Jack “The Joker” Hermansson and Chris “The Action Man” Curtis. These fighters will battle in a co-Main Event Middleweight Bout that pits two dissimilar styles.
Curtis stepped in to take this fight after Darren Till suffered an injury. That switch may shake the 34-year-old Hermansson’s preparations a little, but his Greco-Roman wrestling roots could be the key to him coming out of the octagon with a victory.
Since coming out of retirement two years ago, Curtis is 7-0 and seems energized, winning five of his bouts by KO or TKO. He’s thicker than he’s ever been, but Curtis carries the extra weight and is handling his transition to middleweight with the professionalism of a mature fighter.
This fight is listed as a pick ’em with DraftKings listing both fighters with odds of -110. We’ll lean toward Curtis, who hasn’t let anything get in his way since coming back to the ring in April 2020.
Our Pick: Chris Curtis
