UFC 208 Main Card (pay-per-view)
Germaine de Randamie -120 vs. Holly Holm (rounds 4.5 over -135)
Bettors like de Randamie in this one as Holm opened up as the favorite in this fight at -115. While bettors have taken de Randamie, this is not a huge move as the fight was very close to a pick when it first opened. It would not be surprising to see the wiseguys take Holm in this fight as it gets closer to Saturday night as de Randamie has done nothing in her career to give bettors confidence she can beat Holm.
Derek Brunson -143 vs. Anderson Silva (rounds 1.5 over -140)
This one is surprising as bettors really like Brunson in this fight. This fight opened up as a pick and bettors have been consistently betting Brunson. I think bettors might be on the wrong side of this one as even though Silva hasn’t won in years, he has fought a lot of tough competition while Brunson hasn’t proven anything.
Glover Teixeira -178 vs. Jared Cannonier (rounds 1.5)
Bettors like the favorite in this fight as Teixeira opened up as a -150 favorite and that number is up to -178. One thing is clear in this fight; it shouldn’t last long as both fighters have big time power.
Ronaldo Souza -500 vs. Tim Boetsch (rounds 1.5 under -125)
Souza opened up as a -576 favorite and bettors have been backing the underdog as the number is down to -500. I think this is simply a price play as bettors think the number on Souza is too high. Boetsch has looked better lately but Souza is clearly the superior fighter.
Dustin Poirier -445 vs. Jim Miller (rounds 2.5 under -115)
The wiseguys are all over Poirier in this fight as they are betting him like the fight is already over. Poirier opened up as a -285 favorite and that number is now up to -445.
UFC 208 Preliminary Card (FS1)
Randy Brown -130 vs. Belal Muhammad (rounds 2.5 over -145)
Bettors have started to take Brown in this fight as he opened up as a -120 favorite.
Wilson Reis -600 vs. Ulka Sasaki (rounds 2.5 over -125)
Bettors are not afraid of the price in this one as Reis opened up at -550 and he is now a -600 favorite.

Bettors have another very strong opinion in this fight as Makhachev opened up at -175 and is now up to -270.

Bettors like Brooks in this one as McCall opened as the -120 favorite.
