Saturday night sees Jon Jones and Lyoto Machida step into the cage in the main event of UFC 140 to battle for Jones' UFC light heavyweight championship. While the fight is tremendously interesting from a stylistic standpoint, the oddsmakers don't see it being particularly close. According to Best Fight Odds, Jones is as high as a -575 favorite to retain his title.
Here is the full rundown of the best odds available on each bout:
At one point, Jones was actually hovering around a -350 favorite on average but has become a much more heavy favorite as fight time has approached.
Jones is the heaviest UFC pay-per-view main event favorite since...Jon Jones at UFC 135 against Quinton Jackson, when his best line was -500.
We will, of course, have much more on UFC 140 over today and the weekend, so make sure you keep your browser locked in to Bloody Elbow. Or leave and come back lots of times and inflate our page view count. Whatever.
