Lesnar Opens As Betting Favorite; Quickly Moves To Underdog

Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar isn’t getting much love or respect from MMA bettors. After opening as a -200 favorite over Mark Hunt for his return to the cage at UFC 200, the betting public jumped on the underdog, propelling Hunt into a (currently) -177 favorite over Lesnar. This means Hunt is expected to best the WWE star 64% of the time. If the early going is any indication, expect this number to jump around quite a bit before the two butt heads on July 9th in Las Vegas.
