Deiverson Figueiredo Looks To Begin Title Defense
4 years agoDeiveson Figueiredo (19-1) headlines UFC 255 as he defends his UFC flyweight championship for the first time against challenger Alex Perez. Figueiredo is one of the smaller weight-class fighters who truly has one-punch knockout power. Nine of his 19 wins have come by TKO/KO, which is a rather high number for a flyweight. Make no mistake, though, as he can get it done on the ground as well, scoring a submission win over Joseph Benavidez to win the title. DraftKings has the champion listed at $9,000. Figueiredo averages 90.2 fantasy points per contest, which also includes a seven-point loss. You'll pay a pretty penny to roster him, but Figueiredo is the future of the flyweight division.
