I never hedge unless I have a major red flag come up after I place my bet, which is almost never. I pretty much do 90% of my action at Pinnacle and they don't offer anything but ML and totals. My stakes are fairly large too and I doubt I could even get enough money on a NSC prop to cover my ML bet anyway, I don't even play with books that offer it. I actually don't bet anything besides MLNicely done and I get the reasons to bet Rivera and Price, just feel like Price's lack of defense is going to get him sparked early and Rivera is a nice matchup for Dodson. Do me a favor and "hedge" your Rivera bet with Dodson NSC (still reasonable at -1xx as Rivera isn't finishing shit). Not sure if you saw Dodson's afro, but he just looks like a guy that is going to come out gunning for the KO.

I get what you're saying though, it would be a decent hedge.
I absolutely think Rivera/Dodson goes to the cards but I like Rivera to win based on his 15-1 record on decisions, Dodson is 9-9 on decisions. I also like Rivera's fight IQ and youth over Dodson too, he knows how to edge out rounds. I do see a slight decline is Dodson but he's still high level.
And with Alhassan I do think he's being overestimated, he's beaten no one, his skills don't impress, it's just raw power and athleticism. I'm done doubting Price, it may not always be pretty but he's proven himself against decent comp and he just keeps finding ways to win, also quite well rounded. I believe he should be favored
