UFC betting online: It's been over a year since we've seen Carlos Condit (29-8, 14 KOs, 13 SUBs) in action. Sidelined since March 2014 with various injuries, the former interim welterweight champion is finally slated to return at UFC Fight Night 67.
Welcoming him back to the octagon will be former welterweight title challenger Thiago Alves (21-9, 12 KOs, 2 SUBs).
Currently, Bookmaker's Condit-Alves have Condit as a significant favorite with a minus-235 money line. The Brazilian Alves has a money line of plus+195. The over/under for this five-round main event will likely be 3.5 rounds at nearly pick'em odds.
Condit is still considered one of the top 170-pounders in the world, but he's just 1-3 in his last four with losses to Georges St. Pierre, Johny Hendricks and Tyron Woodley. While those losses are nothing to be ashamed about, Condit really needs a win to stay relevant in the title picture.
Thiago Alves has had injury problems of his own, with extended periods on the sidelines. He's currently riding a modest two-fight winning streak with victories over Seth Baczynski and Jordan Mein, but he's looked far from the fighter who was once thought of as the most dangerous challenger to Georges St. Pierre's hall of fame-worthy title reign.
If you're betting with Bookmaker's Condit-Alves odds, Condit is the guy you want to stick with. While it's always risky to bet on a fighter coming off serious injury, Condit is only 31 years old, and his considerable skill set wasn't reliant on his athleticism anyway. Alves was once an imposing killer in the cage, but that time has long passed. The Brazilian's strength and explosive striking has severely declined over the past few years, and Condit will take advantage of that.
