This weekend’s sports action is packed with high-stakes competition, offering exciting betting opportunities across bull riding, supercross, and bare-knuckle fighting. From John Crimber chasing redemption in Houston to Chase Sexton aiming for back-to-back wins in San Diego, the stage is set for thrilling performances. With expert picks highlighting the best value plays, NXTbets is here to help you maximize your weekend.
The Unleash The Beast series heads to Houston, where Australian star Brady Fielder looks to continue his dominance after a perfect 3-for-3 performance in Chicago. With top competitors like Daylon Swearingen and Dalton Kasel in the mix, the Toyota Center will host two nights of intense bull riding action.

Saturday, January 18: Event starts at 7:45 p.m.
Expert Pick
UTB series leader John Crimber is our expert pick, priced at +800, with a potential return of $180 on a $20 bet. The teenager’s form has dipped slightly after his sensational start to the season, but he showed glimpses of his brilliance last weekend in Chicago, and he has unfinished business in Houston. Last year, he failed to make the Championship round, but he’s more mature and calculated than twelve months ago.
The 2025 SuperMotocross season continues with Round 2 at San Diego’s Snapdragon Stadium. After Chase Sexton’s stunning upset in Anaheim, all eyes are on defending champion Jett Lawrence as he looks to bounce back from a rare misstep. With Sexton, Cooper Webb, and Eli Tomac gaining ground, the stage is set for another thrilling showdown.
Key Times (PT):
Saturday, January 18: Main Event starts at 5:30 p.m.
Expert Pick
While Jett Lawrence remains the sensible favorite, the value play this weekend is Chase Sexton at +733. His A1 performance wasn’t a fluke – it was the culmination of significant off-season development with KTM and the confidence that comes from having a bike setup dialed in. The technical nature of Snapdragon Stadium’s layout plays to Sexton’s precise riding style, and he’s historically excellent at maintaining momentum once he finds his groove. With these odds offering more than 7-to-1 return on the defending race winner, it’s an opportunity too good to pass up.
