Cyborg opens as favorite over Tate, but still an underdog to Rousey

Cris Cyborg's UFC debut went very well for her - after all, she picked up a first-round TKO victory in front of 45,000 Brazilian fans at UFC 198. What is next for the current Invicta 145-pound champ is unclear - the win over Leslie Smith took place at 140 pounds, and she'd need to get to 135 pounds to fight for a UFC title.

Nevertheless, oddsmakers have set lines on the two biggest fights out there for Cyborg - a fight with current UFC women's bantamweight champion Miesha Tate, and a bout against longtime rival Ronda Rousey.
