The Bookies’ Favourite to Win the Bellator Heavyweight Grand Prix

Matt Mitrione was not able to pull an upset against Travis Brown so consider betting against him.

1/1. Bader has gained the bookies’ approval from knocking out King Mo in less than 15 seconds! Check out his Bellator Heavyweight Grand Prix quarterfinals fight:

When we look at the previous match, Matt Mitrione was not able to pull an upset against Travis Brown when he was the underdog. Combined this with the Bellator Heavyweight Grand Prix odds, we believe that Mitrione will lose the semi-final round against Bader. It’s better to bet on Mitrione (67/100) not winning the Bellator Heavyweight Grand Prix at all.

The Most Likely Pair to Cause an Upset

Fedor Emelianenko and Chael Sonnen both have more MMA experience than Bader by at least 10 matches. So the 81/100.
