UFC 319 betting odds – best Du Plessis vs Chimaev betting tips!
According to Bet365, the following are the most bet prop bets for UFC 319:
Chimaev by Submission (+150): His 2.8 subs/15 min and 100% takedown defense make this lethal early.
Du Plessis by Decision (+310): If he survives Round 1, his volume (6.12 SIG/min) could drown Chimaev in later rounds.
Fight Goes Distance (+200): A dicey pick given Chimaev’s finishes, but Du Plessis’ durability (50% strike defense) offers value.
SillySeason Analyst Pick:
Chimaev Inside Rounds 1-2 (-120): If he replicates the Whittaker blitz, Du Plessis’ porous takedown defense (50%) will crack.
Du Plessis ML (+185): For risk-takers—his “chaos pressure” could exploit Chimaev’s 41% striking defense if fatigue hits.
