Betting Preview for UFC Fight Night: Kara-France vs. Albazi with Odds and Picks

The UFC returns to Vegas on Saturday, June 3rd, with an event headlined by the flyweight fight between Kai Kara-France and Amir Albazi.

That’s just one of many interesting matchups announced for this event, all of which you can watch on ESPN.

Watching them live is bound to bring loads of excitement your way, but there’s another way to lift your experience to a whole new level – doing some MMA betting.

Actually, you can do it straight away because the UFC Fight Night: Kara-France vs. Albazi odds are already available at the best UFC betting sites.

BetUS was one of the first online betting sites to publish the UFC on ESPN: Kara-France vs. Albazi odds.

While the oddsmakers were fast to come up with the odds, but I absolutely disagree with them. And that’s a good thing – there’s so much value in betting on UFC on ESPN 46 underdogs.

For instance, Kai Kara-France, who’s the former title challenger, is priced at +108 at BetUS. What this means is that if you bet $100 on him and he ends up winning, you’ll earn another $108.

When it comes to biggest favorites, Guram Kutateladze is the fighter with the shortest UFC on ESPN 46 odds, but I’d recommend staying away from that bet.

BetUS is a reputable and reliable sportsbook that offers a sports welcome bonus of 50% up to $1,000. You can read more about that in our BetUS review or head directly to the site to place your UFC Fight Night: Kara-France vs. Albazi odds.

I’ve got a feeling that we will witness some big surprises in Vegas on June 3rd.

Jim Miller looks like someone who could stage an upset against Jared Gordon. The 39-year-old veteran was originally meant to fight L’udovit Klein, but he pulled out on May 19th. Gordon stepped in with just two weeks to prepare for the fight.

I also think Abubakar Nurmagomedov could beat Elizeu Zaleski. Perhaps he’s not as great a wrestler as other members of the Nurmagomedov family.

Still, Abubakar has a high fight IQ, which makes him incredibly dangerous even against such a well-rounded opponent as Zaleski.

Finally, I also see a surprise happening in the main event of the evening. In my opinion, Kai Kara-France beating Amir Albazi wouldn’t be a surprise.

After all, Kara-France is one of the best kickboxers in the flyweight division, who even got a shot at the title last year.

Brandon Moreno beat him by TKO, but the New Zealand fighter was doing great before that. It happened almost a year ago, and Kara-France is now determined to make himself relevant again. The best way to do it is to win the next event’s headliner in style.

I think he could finish Albazi on Saturday, and I suspect something similar could also happen in the co-main event. Daniel Pineda is 28-14 in his career, with every single one of his wins happening inside the distance.

Priced at +143, he might be an interesting bet, too. Still, my advice for the Caceres vs. Pineda fight is to wait until BetOnline releases UFC Fight Night odds for prop bets.

It usually happens three or four days before the evening, so when it does happen, I will bet on “fight to go the distance – no.”

The UFC on ESPN 46 is one of the year’s most exciting Fight Night events. All the matchups are carefully picked so that there aren’t any huge favorites who’re going to demolish the underdogs.

In fact, I can see the opposite happening in at least three fights on June 3rd.

Kai Kara-France, Abubakar Nurmagomedov, and Jim Miller are my top UFC Fight Night picks. I also believe most of my other UFC Fight Night predictions will win, but honestly, I wouldn’t bet too much money on those.

Actually, I’d avoid a couple of fights at all cost. Andrei Arlovski vs. Don’Tale Mayes is one of those.

It’s literally 50-50, as you can see by the UFC Fight Night odds of -100 on each fighter. I’d also stay away from backing the biggest favorite of the evening – Guram Kutateladze – as well as from putting too much money on Tim Elliott (-140), Josh Castaneda (-161), and Daniel Santos (-185).

We’ve come to the end of this Kai Kara-France vs. Amir Albazi preview, and now is the time to give you parting advice for betting on UFC on ESPN 46.

The best advice I can give you is to head straight to BetOnline and place your bets. Why?

Because UFC Fight Night: Kara-France vs. Albazi odds are guaranteed to change in the coming days.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Kara-France became the favorite before June 3rd. The same goes for Abubakar Nurmagomedov and even Jim Miller.

So, if you want to get the best possible value, place your bets ASAP!
