- Jared Cannonier is a -165 betting favorite over Kelvin Gastelum.

LAS VEGAS - After a week off, the UFC is back in action in Las Vegas. Jared Cannonier and Kelvin Gastelum will fight in the main event on Saturday.
Online sportsbooks are giving Cannonier a slight advantage in the bout.
Cannonier vs Gastelum Moneyline Odds
- Jared Cannonier -165
- Kelvin Gastelum +135
Cannonier’s only losses since 2017 are Robert Whittaker (the next to fight for the middleweight title), Dominick Reyes, who arguably gave Jon Jones his biggest threat to date, Jan Blachowicz (the current light heavyweight champion) and Glover Teixeria (the next to fight for the light heavyweight title).
Gastelum has lost four of his last five fights dating back to the start of 2019. He simply isn’t the fighter he once was and while he is a warrior in the ring, will likely have a tough time getting past Cannonier in their meeting.
Mark Madsen vs Clay Guida
Mark Madsen is a former Olympic wrestler who has an undefeated 10-0 record since making the transition to MMA. He will enter the octagon as a moderate favorite against Clay Guida in the co-main event.
Madsen vs Guida Moneyline Odds
- Mark Madsen -170
- Clay Guida +140
Guida is a legend in the sport and has been a part of some of the more entertaining fights of all time, but he was drastically fallen off as a competitor in the ring. He’s lost three of his last five fights.

UFC betting sites having Madsen at just -170 could be the best bet of the entire night.
Brian Kelleher vs Domingo Pilarte
Brian Kelleher is coming off of a loss but is in a good position to have a bounce-back win against Domingo Pilarte. Putting Pilarte, who has yet to win a fight in the UFC, against a solidified veteran like Kelleher is a tough ask.
Kelleher vs Pilarte Moneyline Odds
- Brian Kelleher -185
- Domingo Pilarte +150
Pilarte has potential, but is unproven at this point which makes Kelleher the best bet for the fight as you know what you’re going to get.
Brandon Royval vs Alexandre Pantoja
Despite being the first fight on the main card, Brandon Royval and Alexandre Pantoja could end up being the most exciting fight of the entire night. Royval’s last two fights include a win over Kai Kara-France and a loss to the now-champion Brandon Moreno.
Royval vs Pantoja Moneyline Odds
- Brandon Royval +145
- Alexandre Pantoja -175
Pantoja has a win over Moreno and has also fought Deiveson Figueiredo as well as some other top competitors in the division. This fight could very well be more of a coin flip than the sports betting sites are suggesting. Taking the underdog in this matchup could prove to be beneficial.
