The opening odds for Saint Denis were set at -300, making them the favorite in the betting.
That’s according to our fiscal friends over at BetOnline.ag, who pegged Carneiro as the +250 underdog. It didn’t take long for money to start trickling in for “Moicano,” who now stands at +185 against -220 for the Parisian “God of War.”
As the fight night approaches, be prepared for the possibility of seeing further fluctuations in this line.
Saint Denis (13-2, 1 NC) has not competed since a technical knockout loss to former interim titleholder Dustin Poirier, a second-round collapse that snapped a five-fight winning streak. As for Carneiro (19-5-1), he’s coming off three straight wins, including his UFC 300 comeback finish over lightweight “Tarantula” Jalin Turner.
