The top DFS fighters for UFC 273: Alexander Volkanovski vs. Korean Zombie

UFC 273 is a stacked card loaded with high adrenaline, high output fighters, making DFS betting an extremely interesting alternative for some sports bettors. 

Three of the toughest fighters on the UFC roster are in championship bouts at the top of the card, the rapidly rising star of Khamzat Chimaev gets a huge stay to prove himself, Jairzinho Rozenstruik and Mickey Gall in the prelims. UFC 273 is absolutely stacked and has MMA fans around the world buzzing with anticipation.

UFC pay-per-views are always a hot spot for sports betting and this card appears to be no different. With the aggressive and high output talent on the card, DFS betting is a great alternative to traditional sportsbook betting. However, there are a ton of great options for your lineups this weekend, so you may need help highlighting the best at every price tier.

Alexander Volkanovski and Tecia Torres are the keys to success for UFC 273 DFS lineups

To start off, there are quite a few expensive fighters this week, but only a couple good options. Alexander Volkanovski is the most expensive fighter for this weekend’s card, but that is for a good reason. Volk throws out a ton of strikes that score quite a few points, while his opponent, Chan Sung Jung, has a tendency to put his hands down and absorb beatings. Sung Jung does have an iron chin and will not go down for an early knockout, giving Volk the opportunity to rack up tons of points for four or five rounds.

In the intermediate tier, the stakes are a little lower, but picking winners here will help enter sports bettors into the upper tiers of winnings. The name to watch most in this region is Tecia Torres, who is currently landing 4.71 strikes per minute. Her opponent, Mackenzie Dern, does have range on her, which could prove challenging and slow down the striking. However, Dern’s defense is not great, absorbing well over 4 strikes per minute, meaning Torres has an opportunity to rack up some significant strikes.
