UFC 98: Evans (+160) vs Machida (-200)
It’s such a friendly betting line. Whether you believe Evans or Machida will win, these numbers beg you to put your money where your mouth is. Sherdog always has some pros pick the fights.
I like what Gabe Ruediger had to say:
I think Machida will win. I think his style will eventually force Rashad to initiate. Machida will counter and use his footwork to ensure that he fights his fight. I’m not sure which round — although something is telling me third — but Machida will win.
It’s actually something that you see a lot of people saying–Machida is always patient and if he can bait Evans to go for something a little wild… that could be all it takes for Machida to capitalize.
It’s hard not to put money on the undefeated Evans when you see a +160 next to his name though.
