Looking to get his UFC career on solid footing, Kyle Daukaus (11-3) will hope to get to .500 (2-3 with one no-contest) in the Octagon when he opens up Saturday's main card of action against Eryk Anders. With all of his professional losses coming in the UFC, Daukaus has noticed the rise in competition. He does have two victories, though, with one coming via decision and one via a D'Arce choke. The D'Arce Knight is the sizeable favorite by DraftKings with a salary of $9,100. Throughout his UFC career (six bouts), he is averaging 52.1 fantasy points per contest. It's possible we see another submission finish for Daukaus, who has had nine of his 11 victories come by submission.

As mentioned in our preview, Kyle Daukaus has racked up quite the number of D'Arce choke submission wins in his career. In Saturday's co-main event, Daukaus earned his first in the UFC, submitting Jamie Pickett with one second left in the first round. Only tallying six significant strikes (19 total strikes), Daukaus had three takedown attempts and two submission attempts. With the win, the D'Arce Knight captures his first victory in his last three outings and has hopefully turned the corner in his UFC career. Daukaus is always worth starting consideration in fantasy, considering his submission finishing ability.

With a no-contest due to an accidental headbutt ending his last matchup in October of last year, Kyle Daukaus (10-2) will take to the Octagon on Saturday for the first time in 2022. With only one win thus far in his four UFC outings, Daukaus will hope to earn a victory to start his year off strong. A dangerous submission finisher, eight of his 10 wins have come by submission, including five of those by D'Arce choke. DraftKings sees Daukaus as the big favorite with a salary of $8,800. Throughout his UFC career, Daukaus averages 48.3 fantasy points per contest. Facing a dangerous young striker in Jamie Pickett, fantasy managers might want to stay away from Daukaus in this one, especially at his price point.
