In the main event, Kattar opened as a -230 favorite, meaning you would have to bet $230 to win $100. As for Ige, he opened up as a +195 dog, meaning a $100 bet would win you $195. They are two of the best featherweights in the game right now, but Kattar has a much flashier style and is the more popular fighter at the sports betting window which leads to his favorite status here. But you shouldn’t count Ige out just yet.
As for the co-main event, Elliott opened as a -190 favorite while Benoit opened as a +165 underdog. Both fighters have been hit-or-miss in the UFC but there’s no doubt Elliott has fought the much tougher competition. Quite frankly, a fight like Jimmie Rivera vs. Cody Stamann probably should have been the co-main event for this card, but this fight between Elliott and Benoit should be a fun one, too.
