Named favorite in the battle of Henry Cejudo and Marlon Vera

Former dual UFC champion Henry Cejudo will be the big favorite to face Marlon Vera on August 19 at UFC 292 in Boston.

At the moment, the odds for the victory of the American is 1.308 (probability 76.47%), while the success of the Ecuadorian fighter is estimated at 3.55 (probability 28.17%).

The bookmakers released the starting odds shortly after UFC President Dana White officially confirmed the organization of the fight.

In May of this year, 36-year-old Henry Cejudo resumed his career after a three-year break, failing to take the championship belt from Aljamain Sterling, to whom he lost a split decision after five rounds.

Marlon Vera, 30, snapped a four-fight streak in March, losing a split decision to Corey Sandhagen in five rounds.

Currently, Henry Cejudo and Marlon Vera are ranked third and sixth in the UFC bantamweight division, respectively.

Recall that the main event of the UFC 292 tournament will be a title fight in the bantamweight division between the current champion of the division Aljamain Sterling and the second number in the rating Sean O’Malley.
