While the UFC continues to be the king when it comes to MMA and gambling, there is more MMA than ever to bet on now. Promotions all over the world as well as domestic ones are showing up in sportsbooks. The advantage here is that the data is usually quite a bit less sharp than when you’re making MMA predictions for the UFC. So we’ve decided to dig into some each week to get you started on your regional MMA journey. This week, we stay stateside for Cage Warriors 182 from San Diego, California and give you our favorite mma pick for it.

MMA Regional Pick of the Week: Cage Warriors 182
Cage Warriors Featherweight Fight: Xavier Vines vs Raul Navarrette
Main Card Start Time: 9:30pm EST (UFC FightPass)
One of the beautiful things about the regional scene is that records often depress the odds from where they ought to be.
If you were to just watch Xavier Vines fights and then check out Raul Navarrette fights, you might line this near -300. Vines is so much more explosive. Additionally, Navarrette stands extremely upright and can make it too easy to be taken down.
However, because Navarrette is 3-0 and Vines is just 3-2, the odds have us down closer to a pick’em than what we anticipated. When you factor in the strength of schedule in those fights and grab some optics on them, this might be the steal of the weekend.
