It's cool @gloom, I think 19% of the people on this site are award hunting.

Belfort is right around +600.  If the odds on him drop even the slightest on a couple sportsbooks, the opportunity for the huge upset award will disappear.  Final odds get entered after the fight.  Hunt at your own risk!

OMG it would be the absoulte worst is Vitor got a lucky punch and won the belt. No matter what you think of Jones, Belfort dosen't belong in there fighting for the title, not even close to earning this shot. They should have just scrapped the LHW match and went back to the FW finals as the main event. This match is a shabby replacement and a joke!

The most of odds have shifted much more towards Jones today and since you never put the odds below +600 it wouldn't make sense for you to drop it below after. I don't know which site you use for odds though so it could still go either way.

I would like to see Vitor get the win. To me Jones has a "I am god" attitude. Am I the only one who thinks this? Lol

@wish we just don't look at it that way.  we just look at the closing odds and where the big sportsbooks average out. doesn't matter if it hasn't gone below 600 so far.  only matters where it ends up.

I'm surprised it's not 100% for the GOAT, as it should be.
