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 head overseas for Oktagon 68 from Stuttgart, Germany for our regional MMA pick.

MMA Regional Pick of the Week: Oktagon 68
Oktagon Welterweight Fight: Jessin Ayari vs Andreas Stahl
Card Start Time: Saturday (3/8), 12:00pm EST (Oktagon.tv)
When Jessin Ayari was shown the door from the UFC, he took some time away. When he came back, he had put on a substantial amount of muscle and seemed to be way more comfortable moving forward. His hands are more dangerous, which works well with his already solid defensive wrestling game.
That should bode well against Andreas Stahl, who relies heavily on the takedown. He has always looked a touch out of his element on the feet, which is why he got his walking papers from the UFC as well.
With Ayari looking far stronger and showing signs of aggression on the feet, he should piece up Stahl in this one. I expect that to carry him to victory here as a slight underdog.
