- Deiveson Figueiredo’s +550 Price Tests Whether His Old Threats Still Travel at 135
Deiveson Figueiredo’s +550 Price Tests Whether His Old Threats Still Travel at 135
The former champion retains real power and submission routes, but his declining results and the market’s extreme support for Payton Talbott leave no margin for a lazy underdog bet.
Deiveson Figueiredo enters UFC 332 with the widest moneyline gap available on the card’s bantamweight co-main event: +550 at BetOnline against Payton Talbott’s -800, with every listed sportsbook making Talbott a substantial favorite.
MMA Fighting’s live coverage identifies the matchup as Saturday’s co-main event in Salt Lake City and reports that Talbott is 11-1 after winning five of his first six UFC fights. The betting stakes are straightforward. A 38-year-old former champion has recognizable upset tools, while the market has assigned him the price of an opponent expected to access those tools rarely.
That does not automatically make Figueiredo valuable. His recent record explains much of the separation, and the packet contains no opponent-level performance data with which to test Talbott’s vulnerabilities. The actionable point is narrower: anyone betting this moneyline must separate Figueiredo’s viable win mechanisms from the appeal of a large plus number.
Figueiredo’s offense is dangerous, but it is not built on sustained volume
Figueiredo has landed 718 significant strikes across 59 tracked rounds, an average career pace of 2.57 significant strikes per minute. He absorbs 3.43 per minute and owns a 49 percent striking-defense rate. Those numbers do not describe a fighter likely to win a clean, high-output striking match over long stretches.
His threat comes from higher-impact moments and transitions. Across 22 bouts with round data, Figueiredo has recorded 12 knockdowns, 30 takedowns and 22 submission attempts. His career rates sit at 1.61 takedowns and 1.2 submission attempts per 15 minutes. He has also accumulated 44 minutes of control.
