After a month and a half ‘off-season’, the UFC is back in action tomorrow, with UFC 324 going down at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. This also marks the beginning of the Paramount+ era for the promotion, which means no more pay-per-views for American fans. For my best bet for Saturday, January 24th: UFC Predictions, I’ve got a winner from a flyweight prelim fight. Let’s get this money!
Best Bet For Saturday (January 24th): UFC Predictions
UFC 324: Gaethje vs Pimblett
Start Time: 5:00 PM EST (Paramount+)
Two flyweights headed in opposite directions meet on tomorrow’s prelims, as former title challenger Alex Perez, winner of one of his last six, faces the surging Charles Johnson, who has won five of his last six, including a knockout victory in his last fight.
Perez has not been the same fighter since losing to then-UFC champion Deiveson Figueiredo in 2020. Plus, he missed weight today, which doesn’t bode well for his performance tomorrow in the cage. Johnson will be the better striker in this matchup, and he’s also a good grappler and scrambler. Plus, he’ll have a five-inch reach advantage to utilize on the feet.
With Perez having been finished in back-to-back fights, if you want to take Johnson inside the distance for a better number, that is a wise move as well.
Best Bet: Charles Johnson ML (-165)
Best Bet Overall 2026 Record: 16-6 (73%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $664.47
Return on Investment: 30%
