UFC 193 Odds: Ronda Rousey vs. Holly Holm

UFC bantamweight champion puts her belt on the line at UFC 193 in Australia. Check out your betting options for the big fight.

Ronda Rousey is the biggest ticket in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. She’s also the biggest favourite you’ll find in the world of MMA betting, but her odds of winning Saturday’s UFC 193 main event against Holly Holm have reached a new level.

The Odds

Earlier this week Rousey was set as a huge -1600 favorite against Holm and as the fight nears the betting action has forced oddsmakers to move that line even further to -2000. That means at this price you would have to risk $20 to win $1 in a Rousey victory. Understandably, with odds like that, lots of bettors traditionally place lottery ticket bets on big underdogs against Rousey and Holm will see action as the +900 pup here.

If prop bets are more your speed, Sports Interaction has you covered for Rousey vs. Holm.

UFC 193 main event odds include total rounds, method of victory, round of victory, and a number of specials like Ronda Rousey to win by armbar (-165), Rousey to win in less than 60 seconds (+175), and most takedowns.

Gone in 60 Seconds

Okay, okay, the Nicolas Cage metaphor has no place here but the Rousey victory in less than 60 seconds is interesting when you consider she has won her last four fights in a combined time of two minutes and 10 seconds total with three of those bouts ending in less than a minute. Now, Rousey has talked a lot about being patient in this UFC 193 title defence and respecting Holm’s power, but then again, it could just as easily be a case of her trying to bump up pay-per-view number.

Ronda Rousey Armbar

The Rousey to win by armbar prop is worth a look too. She made a concerted effort to showcase her striking in her latest title defence and recently stated she’d be interested in competing as a boxer when her UFC career is over.

However, all that should be taken with a grain of salt too. Holm is probably the most dangers striker she’s ever faced and Rousey has a big edge if she gets this fight to the mat. If it goes to the ground it may be just a matter of time before she slaps on her patented armbar to win the fight.
