The Story
A betting preview for UFC Fight Night Vegas 124 says the card will run at the UFC APEX in Las Vegas with 14 fights, and it projects 11 bouts to end inside the distance. The event’s coverage notes the weigh-ins took place Friday, Nov. 6, 2026, and the main card begins at 2 p.m. ET on Saturday.
One of the headlined betting matchups in the preview is Waldo Cortes Acosta vs. Johnny Walker, described as a heavyweight fight where Walker is moving up from light heavyweight. The preview says Walker won by knockout in his division debut against Mick Parkin, while Cortes Acosta is stepping in on short notice after competing on Sep. 12, and Walker fought on Oct. 3.
The preview argues Cortes Acosta is the more reliable pick for a finish, pointing to Walker’s history of being knocked out in the UFC and Cortes Acosta’s undefeated record in UFC bouts by KO. The suggested wager is Waldo Cortes Acosta to win by KO/TKO at -105 with Fanatics Sportsbook.
Another featured matchup is Tatiana Suarez vs. Virna Jandiroba, billed as a high-level strawweight bout with title aspirations in both fighters’ careers. The preview lists Suarez at 13-1 and notes she is coming in as a solid favorite at -220, while it lists Jandiroba at 23-4 and highlights that her recent loss was to champion Mackenzie Dern.
According to the preview, Jandiroba defends takedowns at a 72 percent rate and has not been taken down in a fight multiple times since 2019. It also says the underdog strategy is to neutralize Suarez’s grappling and win on the feet, with the forecast predicting an upset via decision. The recommended bet is Virna Jandiroba by decision at +270 with FanDuel.
The preview also lists several other card wagers, including Davey Grant vs. Elijah Smith with a live bet on Grant if he survives round 1, and Billy Elekana vs. Lucas Fernando with Fernando winning and the fight starting round two at -130 with DraftKings. It adds Priscila Cachoeira vs. Nina Milosevic with fight going the distance at +300 with FanDuel, and Jose Delano vs. Murtazali Magomedov with Delano by decision at +270 with FanDuel.
Additional suggestions from the preview include Keiichiro Nakamura vs. Ollie Schmid with a pass on the fight, Gabriel Lorenco vs. Thomas Petersen with Lorenco winning by KO/TKO in round 1 at +700 with Fanatics Sportsbook or by KO/TKO in round 2 at 10/1 with Hard Rock, and Karine Silva vs. Gabriella Fernandes with fight going the distance at -148 with FanDuel. It also includes Austin Bashi vs. Lucas Brennan with a plan to bet Bashi by submission when lines come out, and Mitch Raposo vs. Marcos Degli with a live bet on Raposo if he survives round one.
More wagers listed include Mantas Kondratavicius vs. Andre Petroski with Kondratavicius winning by KO/TKO in round 2 at +750 with Hard Rock, Seokhyeon Ko vs. Wellington Turman with Turman by decision at +940 with Kalshi, and Jonny Parsons vs. Jose Souza with fight ending by knockout at -130 with FanDuel. The preview also calls for a specific finish window for Gabriel Lorenco, and includes a live-betting angle tied to early-round survival for Grant and Raposo.
Finally, the preview credits Erich Richter as the betting voice behind the picks, describing him as a Brazilian jiu-jitsu blue belt who also has a black belt in MMA betting. It says that during the football season he has shown “massive profits” at The Post in the player prop market over the last two seasons, and it adds that his return on investment is 30.15 percent since 2022.
