Machida will be entering the shootout as a slight +145 underdog. Rockhold, meanwhile, checks in as nearly a 2-1 odds-on favorite.
The featured attraction should be a barnburner. What isn’t expected to a hotly contested bout is the co-main event between Chris Camozzi and Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza. Souza is a whopping 18-1 favorite to plaster the last-minute replacement.
Camozzi checks in as a 8-1 longshot.
Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey hosts the festivities.
