Writer’s Picks on 2024 PFL MENA Championships

Ali Taleb -290 vs Rachid El Houzame +235

MENA Bantamweight Championship

Taleb is on a 2-match winning streak after beating Jaalal Al Daaja via knockout, Taleb landed a left hook and straight right, in the first round in September.

Earlier this year, Taleb bested Nawras Abzakh via unanimous decision in May.

Rachid El Houzame has won 3 straight going back to a 2023 bout versus Jesus Ramos.

El Houzame ranks 124 in the world. Taleb ranks 112.

So the difference between these two isn’t that great.

Taking a shot on the underdog makes sense.

PFL MENA Championship Pick: Rachid El Houzame

Mohammad Alaqraa -410 vs Omar El Dafrawy +320

MENA Welterweight Championship

Dog Omar El Dafrawy boasts a 12-6 record.

The underdog is hot.

El Dafrawy is in the midst of a 6-match winning streak.

He’s won 5-of-6 via TKO.

Mohammed Alaqraa is 7-0.

Alaqraa is excellent at switching it up.

He can go for the submission or knockout. But he’s patient.

If the KO isn’t there, Alaqraa will beat you via decision.

The favorite prevails.

PFL MENA Championship Pick: Mohammad Alaqraa

Abdalrahman Alhyasat -115 vs Abdullah Al-Qahtani -105

MENA Featherweight Championship

Alhyasat versus Al-Qahtani should be one of the most competitive bouts of the night.

Favored Abdalrahman Alhyasat is 5-0.

Alhyasat has won all 5 bouts via decision.

Al-Qahtani is 9-21. This is a rematch of a bout that went to Alhyasat.

The -105 underdog can get it done in the second fight by making a few changes.

Give Al-Qahtani the nod.

PFL MENA Championship Pick: Abdullah Al-Qahtani

Writer’s Picks on 2024 PFL World Championships

Magomed Umalatov +220 vs Shamil Musaev -270

World Welterweight Championship

17-0 chalk Shamil Musaev has won 11 bouts via knockout, 2 via submission, and 6 via decision.

He ranks thirty-eight in the world, which is a big deal considering PFL fighters don’t always rank in the top 50.

19-0-1 Umalatov ranks 41. Both fighters can win this.

The odds suggest Musaev is a more likely winner than reality suggests.

Grab the overlay odds on Umalatov.

PFL World Championship Pick: Magomed Umalatov

Brent Primus +410 vs Gadzhi Rabadanov-550

World Lightweight Championship

American Brent Primus boasts a 15-3-0 record.

Primus has won 4-of-5 with a no contest versus Urman Nurmagomedov at Bellator 300.

He’s got a decent ground game and strike.

Gadzhi Rabadanov is the better mixed martial artist in this.

The favorite is 23-4-2 and does almost everything right.

The odds make Rabadanov tough to back but they’re fair.

PFL World Championship Pick: Gadzhi Rabadanov

Denis Goltsov +110 vs Oleg Popov -130

World Heavyweight Championship

Popov versus Goltsov should be great.

Favored Oleg Popov is 19-1.

The lone loss came in 2016.

So Popov has been blasting his opponent for a while.

Denis Goltsov is 35-8.

The +110 dog has won 6-of-7 and has beaten his 2-of-3 via knockout and won the third via submission.

Goltsov is fighting well enough to back.

Give the dog a chance to bite.

PFL World Championship Pick: Denis Goltsov
