Cris Cyborg is tipped as a strong favorite against Felicia Spencer at UFC 240

At 27 years old, Holloway, born in Hawaii, considered the favorite to win the match, is coming off a setback, which he suffered for Dustin poirier in April this year. Look, in terms of betting, the recent defeat does not change your favoritism in any way, yielding R$1,25 for every R$1,00 invested by you. His record is 20 positive results and 4 negative results. The last time Holloway lost 2 matches in a row was in 2013.

PUBLICITY:

Edgar, 10 years older, born in New Jersey, with a record of 23 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses, has not yet fought in 2019. His most recent appearance took place a long time ago, in April last year, in the triumph over Cub swanson. The lack of rhythm can be a determining factor during the duel. He currently occupies 4th place in the featherweight rankings. Winning over the weekend is not seen as likely to happen, so much so that it pays R$4,00, according to the OddsShark. When he faced José Aldo e Brian ortega, fighters who are better positioned in the category, on 3 occasions, he was surpassed on all of them. Holloway appears to be the best investment option and should keep the belt.
