Kamaru Usman is the odds-on favourite to beat Leon Edwards in UFC 286's main event
The highly anticipated third fight between Britain's Leon Edwards and Kamaru Usman takes place this Saturday at the O2 Arena in London.
Edwards won the Welterweight belt in dramatic fashion last time the pair fought with his 5th round head-kick KO causing shockwaves around the MMA world and beyond.
The latest betting odds are similar to the last bout despite Edwards now being the champion with Usman the 4/11 favourite to win the fight.
Leon Edwards is 15/8 to win with Paddy Power who say that there's a 34% chance of the British fighter retaining his belt in this weekend's bout.
| Edwards v Usman 3 winner | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Leon Edwards | 15/8 | 34.8% |
| Kamaru Usman | 4/11 | 73.3% |
Justin Gaethje faces Rafael Fiziev in a fantastic co-main event
Saturday's co-main event is expected to be a brawl with Justin Gaethje facing Rafael Fiziev in what could be a gruelling affair.
It's no secret that Gaethje gets into absolute banger fights and it should be more of the same here with Fiziev looking like the perfect dance partner.
This fight should be a war with both fighters definitely looking to finish it and Gaethje himself has won 8 Fight of the Night or Performance of the Night bonuses in his last 10 fights.
Fiziev is the favourite to win this one though with bookmakers putting him as the 2/5 favourite in the bout against the 7/4 odds for Gaethje to win.
