UFC 98 betting has a total of 11 bouts on the card with the feature bout being the one between Rashad Evans and Lyoto Machida. UFC odds have Machida favored against Evans for this fight which will take place on May 23 from Las Vegas, Nevada. Let’s take a look at this feature bout between two talented fighters.
UFC betting odds are a bit surprising in this bout as Evans is an underdog despite being a world champion and undefeated in his career. Machida is also undefeated and has been more impressive in his career. Most fighters that go against Machida can’t handle his unorthodox style but that should not be the case with Evans. In past fights Evans has shown patience and that will be a key in this UFC betting matchup. Both Evans and Machida have solid striking power so both should be cautious.
While this UFC 98 betting matchup between Evans and Machida is the feature fight on the card it probably won’t be the best one. Evans is a patient fighter as is Machida. Both are going to try and avoid making mistakes and that could mean a slow moving fight. Keep in mind that 8 of Machida’s 14 wins have come by decision.
UFC betting action on the Matt Hughes vs. Matt Serra fight should be the exact opposite of Evans-Machida. Hughes and Serra hate each other and will go at it from the start.
