In the upcoming UFC Singapore event on August 26, Max Holloway is anticipated to have an easy victory, according to the early odds provided by SportsBetting.ag. The former undisputed featherweight champion will be facing Chan Sung Jung, known as “The Korean Zombie,” in the main event. Holloway is a massive favorite at -1000, while Jung is considered a significant underdog at +700.
To break down the numbers, a successful $100 bet on Holloway would yield a profit of $10, whereas a successful $100 bet on Jung would result in a profit of $700. The odds clearly indicate Holloway’s superiority, giving him a 91 percent chance of winning, while Jung is given just a 12.5 percent chance.
These odds shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone familiar with the current standings of the fighters. Holloway remains firmly positioned as the No. 2 featherweight in the MMA Hook Global Rankings, with his only rival being Alexander Volkanovski. Jung, on the other hand, sits at No. 11 and has experienced a decline in performance in recent years. At 36 years old, he has openly discussed the possibility of retiring in the near future.
The official announcement of the Holloway vs. Zombie matchup was made on June 15, along with two other main event fights: Cory Sandhagen vs. Umar Nurmagomedov (UFC Nashville, Aug. 5) and Ciryl Gane vs. Serghei Spivac (UFC Paris, Sept. 2). The odds for these matchups are also available on SportsBetting.ag.
Although Nurmagomedov is ranked No. 10 by MMA Hook, six spots lower than Sandhagen (No. 4), oddsmakers favor the undefeated bantamweight. Nurmagomedov is currently a -300 favorite, while Sandhagen is the underdog at +250. Nurmagomedov is given a 75 percent chance of winning, with a successful $100 bet resulting in a profit of $33.33. Sandhagen, on the other hand, has a 29 percent chance of victory, and a successful $100 bet on him would earn $250.
While not as heavily favored as Holloway or Sandhagen, Ciryl Gane, the No. 4 heavyweight in MMA Hook’s rankings, is still highly respected. He currently has odds of -200 to defeat Spivac (+170) in the UFC Paris event. This gives Gane a 66.67 percent chance of winning, with a successful $100 bet resulting in a $50 profit. Spivac, on the other hand, has a 37 percent chance of victory, and a successful bet on him would win $170.
