Despite experiencing several recent setbacks in his career and without winning since October 2012, Anderson Silva starts as a favorite on the betting exchanges for the fight he will have against Michael Bisping, on February 27th, in the main attraction of UFC Fight Night London.

According to the website “MMA Odds Breaker”, the Brazilian, former UFC middleweight champion, has initial numbers at -235. This means that the bettor who invests in Anderson's victory will only profit US$ 100 if he bets US$ 235. Bisping is at +178: that is, a profit of US$ 178 for every US$ 100 bet.
Anderson's last victory in the UFC was in October 2012, in Rio de Janeiro, when he defeated Stephan bonnar at UFC 153. Since then, “Spider” has lost twice to Chris Weidman – in the second, with a serious fracture in his leg -, he was out for more than a year, won Nick Diaz, but lost the victory after being caught doping, and served a year suspension. Bisping, in turn, won two in a row, against CB Dollaway and Thales leites.
