The favorite in the fight between Arman Tsarukyan and Benil Dariush has been named

Despite the fact that Arman Tsarukyan loses four lines in the rankings of the UFC lightweight division to Benil Dariush, the Russian fighter is a clear favorite in the confrontation with the American.

Currently, the odds on Tsarukyan’s victory are 1.588 (62.96% probability), while Dariush’s success is estimated at 2.42 odds (41.32% probability).

Bookmakers released the starting odds for the fight shortly after UFC head Dana White announced the fight between Dariush and Tsarukyan as the main event of UFC on ESPN 52, which takes place on December 2 in Austin.

Arman Tsarukyan, 27, picked up his second straight victory on June 17, finishing Joaquim Silva by third-round TKO, while Benil Dariush, 34, snapped an eight-fight win streak a week earlier, losing by first-round TKO to Charles Oliveira in a potential contender’s bout.

In the organization’s updated rankings, Benil Dariush and Arman Tsarukyan are ranked fourth and eighth in the UFC’s lightweight division, respectively.
