Prediction: Sergey Spivak VS Waldo Cortes-Acosta 2025-06-07

The main event may be Merab Dvalishvili vs Sean O'Malley, but let's not sleep on the intriguing matchup between Sergey Spivak and Waldo Cortes-Acosta. Spivak, the favorite, is looking to take down the former professional baseball player turned MMA fighter, Cortes-Acosta.

Cortes-Acosta, also known as Valdo, is a wild card in this fight, given his unorthodox background. However, Spivak's experience and skillset make him a significant favorite across the board, with odds ranging from 1.75 to 1.8.

The over/under for this fight is set at 2.5 rounds, with the under being the more likely outcome, priced at 1.57. This suggests that the bookmakers expect a relatively quick finish, which could be due to Spivak's grappling prowess.

My best bet for this matchup is Sergey Spivak to win, given his significant experience advantage and well-rounded skillset. The price of 1.79 at BetOnline.ag seems like a solid value, considering the odds across other sportsbooks.

So, if you're looking to make a bet on this fight, take Spivak to win, and let's see if the former baseball player can pull off the upset. But let's be real, it's Spivak's fight to lose.
