UFC Vegas 69 Andrade vs. Blanchfield: Best Bets & Picks (Saturday)
This weekend sees the continuation of the action in the UFC, with UFC Fight Night 219 coming live from the UF C Apex. The main event will feature a women’s flyweight fight between the former champion of the strawweight division champ, Jessica Andrade, and Erin Blanchfield. In the co-main, a pair of light heavyweight journeymen will go at it as Jordan Wright takes on Zac Pauga.
While both of those fights will be intriguing, let’s take a closer look at my favorite prop bets throughout the card on Saturday.

Top Bets for UFC Vegas 69: Andrade vs. Blanchfield
Jessica Andrade vs. Erin Blanchfield
But make no mistake, Andrade is a vicious fighter who is currently at the peak of her career. However, styles make fights, and I believe that the Brazilian striker has chosen a style that will not serve her well.
Best Bet: Erin Blanchfield (+120 via DraftKings)
Jordan Wright vs. Zac Pauga
Despite his recent run of losses, this is absolutely a fight that Wright can win. Between the slight edges in the metrics and the desperation to stay with the promotion, I have this fight much closer to even than the odds currently suggest.
At nearly 3 to 1, the value that Wright provides is just too good to pass up on in this spot.
Best Bet: Jordan Wright (+230 via DraftKings)
UFC Vegas 69 Prop Bet Picks
William Knight (-115) vs. Marcin Prachino (-105)
On Saturday’s main card, two hard-hitting light heavyweights with questionable chins will face off in a fight that I don’t think will go the distance. This contest was postponed the week before it was supposed to take place in November amid rumors that Knight’s weight loss was to blame.
After going 3-1 through his first four UFC fights, Knight suffered his second straight loss in April 2022 via TKO to Devin Clark. This was the last time we saw Knight in the octagon.
Following a defeat as well, Prachnio enters this match losing in April 2022 as well. He had a record of 2-3 in the UFC before that, with all three of his losses coming by way of KO/TKO in the first round.
Both of these competitors, who are in their mid-30s and have a combined record of 5-7 after six fights each in the UFC, are unlikely to have title aspirations going forward. Add to it the fact that 81% of their professional matches have ended within the distance, and I predict that both fighters will let loose in this one as they go for a Fight of the Night bonus performance.
Bet: Under 2.5 Total Rounds (-180 via DraftKings)
