UFC champions Stipe Miocic and Joanna Jedrzejczyk each have their eyes set on records for consecutive title defenses. In order to eventually reach their goals, heavyweight Miocic and strawweight Jedrzejczyk must win on Saturday as small favorites at UFC 211 in Dallas.
The two are fighting in the main and co-main events on the card.
The record for consecutive title defenses at heavyweight is two, a mark Miocic (16-2) can tie with a victory against former champ Junior Dos Santos (18-4). The 34-year-old Miocic is a -140 betting favorite (wager $140 to win $100) at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark, but he lost the first fight to Dos Santos via unanimous decision in December 2014.
