The bigger man has opened as the favorite in the upcoming super fight between UFC champions Stipe Miocic and Daniel Cormier.
As officials announced on Friday, light-heavyweight champ Cormier (20-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC) is returning to heavyweight to fight that division’s reigning titleholder – Miocic (18-2 MMA, 12-2 UFC) – in a champ-vs.-champ super fight at UFC 226, which airs on pay-per-view on July 7 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Veteran MMA oddsmaker Joey Oddessa has opened “The Oddessa Line” for the fight with Miocic the favorite at -185 and Cormier the underdog at +150, he confirmed with MMAjunkie.

Boxing Parlay Settings. UFC Betting; UFC 226 Odds – Cherry Picks, Savvy Risks and Lottery Tickets. By Abe Chong-July 4, 2018. Tweet; Get ready for a second round of fireworks – this time inside the octagon. Every year, the UFC always manages to put on an explosive event during 4th of July weekend, and this Saturday’s UFC 226.
However, though his favorite status is due in part to Miocic’s weight advantage – he weighed in at 246 pounds for his recent UFC 220 headliner, and Cormier was 205 for the co-headliner – Oddessa sees a clear possible path to victory for the challenger.
“Anyone who has been around long enough knows I’ve always been partial to the wrestlers, particularly the guys who performed and excelled at higher levels and not just competed and participated on higher levels levels,” he told MMAjunkie. “And Dan Cormier is one of those guys who’s excelled.
“Weight is usually a huge factor, but ‘DC’s’ steamrolled over heavier guys than Stipe. … Now he’s facing arguably the best heavyweight fighter in the past 20 years. Cormier’s got all the talent in the room to prepare him for a fight where he has nothing to lose. So sure, he’s (a live underdog). ”
Plus, Cormier, who hasn’t been an underdog to anyone but Jon Jones since 2011, brings a skill set that Miocic has avoided in his recent matchups, which recently saw him set a UFC heavyweight-title-defense record.
“Interestingly enough, if you look at Stipe’s record, he has never fought a wrestler – ever,” Oddessa said. “If the version of Dan Cormier who just beat Volkan Oezdemir shows up against the version of Stipe Miocic who just beat Francis Ngannou, it’s going to be a tough night for the heavyweight champ.”

How Fight Odds Work
Ufc 226 Card
Unlike a spread on a football game where one team is getting a certain amount of points (ex. Saints +7), in MMA fights the line on the game is called a money line.
Stipe Miocic (-240)
Daniel Cormier (+180)
In this fight, Miocic would be the favorite, meaning if you bet $240 on him and he wins, you would only profit $100. If he were to lose though, you would lose the full $240.
If you were to bet on DC at +180, if you bet $100 on him and he wins the fight, you will profit $180. If he were to lose the fight, you would lose your original $100 bet.
Depending on how people are betting on the fights the odds will shift from the moment they open, right up until the night of the fights.
Ufc 226 Odds
The sport is built on moments that make you involuntary think “HOLY F***ING S***!!!” Those can come at any time, on any portion of the card, from any fighter. Thus, some bettors look to the underdogs, sometimes big ones, as the best bets.
