When betting on MMA, one strategy is to look at the closest lines and seek a fight you’re confident in the outcome of. UFC Fight Night 137, which takes place on Saturday, has four really close fights per betting odds.
Thales Leites (-120) vs. Hector Lombard (Even)
Both men could desperately use a win. Lombard enters the fight on a five-fight losing streak and hasn’t won since March 2014 over Jake Shields. Leites 0-2 in his last two. This fight could very well come down to who’s less shopworn. Leites, who has looked better than Lombard in recent appearances, is being backed by the betting odds ever so slightly.
