Derrick Lewis is a major betting underdog in tonight’s UFC main event.
Lewis, who is on a four-fight win streak, will step into the Octagon for his interim UFC Heavyweight Championship bout with Ciryl Gane with the odds stacked against him.
Gane, who is undefeated after nine professional fights, has secured significant wins against top heavyweight opponents including Alexander Volkov, Jairzinho Rozenstruik, and Junior dos Santos to emerge as one of the most promising heavyweight contenders. It appears that bettors are flocking to Gane’s side before the UFC 265 main event.
The rest of the UFC 265 main card fights are surprisingly equally matched, as well, with three of the other four fights listed as a near pick ’em. The other fight, Angela Hill vs. Tecia Torres, sees Torres as a small favorite.
