UFC 282: Blachowicz vs. Ankalaev Odds, Card

UFC 282 was originally organized around a title fight between division champion Jiří Procházka and No. 2-ranked former champion Glover Teixeira. However, due to a shoulder injury, Procházka pulled out of the event and vacated the title. Teixeira then refused a fight against No. 4-ranked Magomed Ankalaev, leading the UFC to bring in No. 3-ranked Jan Blachowicz.

Despite the shakeup, UFC 282 should still deliver plenty of excitement. Ankalaev and Blachowicz are both MMA veterans, with Blachowicz being a former UFC champion and Ankalaev boasting an impressive 17-1 record. This is Ankalaev’s first shot at a title as he hopes to continue a seven-fight winning streak.

Oddsmakers have Ankalaev as the favorite to take home the belt tonight with moneyline odds of -340 compared to Blachowicz’s +250.
