Weekend Showdown in UFC 317: Fists Fly and Slaps Echo
Here's a fresh take on the article:
Weekend Fight Frenzy! 🎉
Gearing up for an action-packed weekend here in Sin City! My first stop? The Crazy Girls statue unveiling at Circa's ribbon-cutting ceremony at 5 p.m. on Fri-yay, naturally!
Then, it's off to Power Slap 13 at the Fontainebleau. The Dumpling, a burly goat herder from Siberia (legit!), defends his heavyweight title against Da Hawaiian Hitman. Circa has The Dumpling favored heavily, with odds of -315. Yes, you read that right—you CAN bet on Power Slap! And thanks to Derek Stevens, owner of Circa, I get to join the action! Don't forget to catch it live on YouTube on the Power Slap page.
By Saturday, it's time for UFC 317! The highlight? The undefeated young gun, Ilia Topuria, clashes with the seasoned Charles Oliveira for the vacant lightweight championship. VSiN UFC analyst, Lou Finocchiaro, explains, "Topuria's seven-year youth advantage, mixed martial arts arsenal, and Oliveira's advanced age make him the favored combatant."
Got a couple of bets on the mind? Take a peek at Lou's Best Bet for the main event, plus two more on the card, all posted on the VSiN picks page!
As for me, I'll be taking in all the UFC action at Circa's Stadium Swim, and perhaps catching Jake Paul's bout with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in Anaheim. Paul is heavily favored, listed at -575.
