UFC 239 Betting Odds: Jon Jones a massive favorite
The anticipation is building for this weekend’s UFC 239 main event, which will pit dominant champion Jon Jones (24-1) against ferocious challenger Thiago “Marreta” Santos (21-6).
As is seemingly always the case, ‘Bones’ is on top as the bookie favorite to win. The oddsmakers have identified him as -600 favorite, meaning a successful $600 bet on Jon Jones would win you $100. Marreta, meanwhile, is a significant +450 underdog (bet $100 to win $450).
The co-main event of UFC 239 will see former champion Holly Holm take on two-division champ Amanda Nunes for the UFC bantamweight title. Like Jon Jones, Amanda Nunes is a heavyweight favorite to retain her title. She’s sitting at -340 (bet $340 to win $100), while Holm is at +280 (bet $100 to win $280).
