Bellator 171 – what is the best bet?

How to bet – the basics – When you are placing a bet on a Bellator fight you will notice that the fighters have some numbers in brackets next to their names. Each fight, will have one fighter who is favored or known more commonly as the favorite and an underdog. The underdog fighters name will be appended with a positive number and the favorite fighters name will be appended with a negative number. For instance let’s assume the odds to be +170 and -160 this means that you would bet $100 to win $170 and $160 to win $100 respectively.

Now that you catch the drift, here are some of our picks for Bellator 171.

Guillard vs. Njoukuani – Guillard is more experienced, but Njoukuani is young, confident and in fantastic form. Furthermore, Guillard’s recent performances have been under par and it will certainly not help going into this fight.

We do favor Njoukuani here and would put our money on him.

David Rickels vs. Aaron Derrow – Rickets, despite having lost to Guillard recently, was champion of the tournament in season 8 and we all know what he is capable of. His opponent is Derrow who has not fought competitively in over two years now and should not be a real problem for Rickels, but will be certainly looking to make things as difficult as possible for Rickels.

Our pick here is Rickels, we just can’t see him losing this one.
