Bellator MMA will have a rare Saturday all to itself when it stages a card this weekend and follows in the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s footsteps with a main event to unify the heavyweight championship. The lines are admittedly trim: Three of 11 bouts feature favorites at -800 or above and only three below -200 at the moment. While predictably paltry, play on with a pair of plus-money pointers pertaining to Bellator 273’s main card, providing a particularly palatable prop pick and a pleasantly promising parlay.

All eyes are on “Darth” Bader in his first fight at heavyweight since he jammed his finger into Cheick Kongo’s eye in 2019.
