UFC 152 Odds Recap and Handicapping Analysis of the Fight. The Ultimate Fighting Championships 152nd edition came off without a hitch Saturday night in Toronto’s Air Canada Centre. No cancellations occurred as was the case with its predecessor UFC 151.
However, there was almost a hitch in the events main bout when Jon Jones had his hands full with Vitor Belfort. Jones was favored by as much as a -$800 preceding the action with the under/over set at just 1.5 rounds. Someone must have forgot to tell Belfort that the fight was supposed to end in Jones’ favor as he came close to ending the affair in the first round himself.
Belfort caught Jones with a full on armbar, appearing to damage Jones elbow in the process. Jones hung tough though and did not tap out. He then came back three rounds later ending the fight at 1:03 of the fourth round with a barrage of elbows causing Belfort to be the one who ultimately submitted. Check the UFC 153 Odds.
