UFC 279 Card, Odds

In the co-headliner, Chimaev is favored at -600, with Holland coming back at +400 Diaz enters the cage on a two-fight losing streak.

Diaz, 37, owns a 15-11 record inside the Octagon, his run with the company highlighted by victories over Conor McGregor, Anthony Pettis, Donald Cerrone and Takanori Gomi. Ferguson, meanwhile, has lost four fights in a row. The 38-year-old last appeared at UFC 274, where he was victimized by a front kick from former Bellator MMA champion Michael Chandler in the second round of their May 7 encounter. Ferguson boasts 20 finishes among his 25 professional victories. The rest of the main draw features a catchweight clash pairing Daniel Rodriguez (-155) with Jingliang Li (+125) at 180 pounds, a women’s bantamweight affair pitting Irene Aldana (-170) against Macy Chiasson (+140) and a light heavyweight battle matching Ion Cutelaba (-230) with Johnny Walker (+180). Featherweights anchor the eight-fight preliminary slate, as Hakeem Dawodu (-220) locks horns with Julian Erosa (+175). « Previous Shillan and Duffy: UFC 279 Preview UPDATE Next UFC 279 Highlight Video: Chris Barnett Busts Up Jake Collier » More
