Ultimate Fight Night 54 Best Bets will give you the low down on the best bets to make for the upcoming North of the American border.

Ultimate Fight Night 54 has a big matchup for the welterweight division. Only one can come out on top but is that the best bet there is on the card?

Ultimate Fight Night 54 Best Bets Favorites

Daron Cruickshank vs. Anthony Njokuani

Cruickshank is an underdog but only by a little bit coming in at -170. He may have lost his last fight but nearly finished Jorge Masvidal. Njokuani on the other hand has gone 1-2 in his last three fights showing that his striking is not nearly as vaunted. Njokuani is tough on the feet, but Cruickshank has a lot more weapons to put him out with. Cruickshank is easily the best bet to win his fight and the best odds for a favorite.

Ultimate Fight Night 54 Best Bets Underdogs

Bryan Caraway vs. Rafael Assuncao

Caraway is +200 but there is a lot more to this fight than meets the eye. Caraway is 4-1 in his last five fights having finished everyone of those opponents. The only loss comes by split decision to Takeya Mizugaki. Neither of them have great striking power on the feet so it should be even there. On the ground, obviously it will be competitive on the ground, but Caraway will have the better wrestling and control which should win him the fight.

Tarec Saffiedine vs. Rory MacDonald

Saffiedine is a huge underdog at +400 and rightfully so, but that does not mean that he is not a good bet. MacDonald has lost twice in his career to Carlos Condit and Robbie Lawler because both of them could out strike the Canadian. Plus the x-factor in this fight is the 5 rounds which MacDonald has never gone through and Saffiedine has gone through in his last two fights. I think his experience in the championship rounds and vaunted striking win him this fight by decision.
