Teixeira vs. Prochazka Odds
Glover Teixeira, the UFC’s most senior champion with a record of 33-7, is preparing to defend his title for the first time after earning it in October.
Jiri Prochazka (28-3), a 29-year-old Czech fighter, will be facing the 42-year-old champion in the cage. Prochazka is currently on a remarkable 12-fight winning streak, with his last 11 victories achieved through TKO or KO. In his UFC career, Prochazka has a perfect record of 2-0, securing both wins with second-round knockouts.
Teixeira’s journey in the UFC has been quite remarkable. Despite facing setbacks with three losses out of five matches between 2016 and 2017, he displayed tremendous resilience and fought his way up the rankings. Ultimately, he shocked the world with a championship-winning submission victory over Jan Blachowicz at UFC 267.
Teixeira, who initially gained recognition as a formidable puncher in the UFC, has recently showcased his submission skills by securing victories in four out of his last six fights.
However, oddsmakers have high expectations for a new champion, anticipating Prochazka to possess greater speed and strength.
At present, DraftKings Sportsbook MI has set the over/under for rounds at a mere 1.5 for the main event. This suggests an anticipation of a swift and dynamic conclusion. It is difficult to dispute this expectation considering that both fighters have not surpassed the third round in their last four fights collectively.
Shevchenko vs. Santos Odds
Valentina Shevchenko is everything but an underdog as she prepares for her title fight against Taila Santos.
Shevchenko (22-3) is widely regarded as the UFC’s most formidable champion, having consistently showcased her dominance. She is determined to achieve her seventh title defense, which would set a remarkable record for any women’s champion in the history of the UFC. However, standing as a formidable obstacle is Taila Santos (19-1).
Using her incredible speed and technical striking abilities, the champion has successfully dominated her opponents. Out of her six title defenses, she has triumphed in four by way of TKO. The remaining two fights were determined by the judges, who only found her to be the inferior fighter in a single round out of the total ten.
Santos has been on an impressive winning streak, triumphing in four consecutive fights, one of which was a first-round submission victory against Joanne Wood last November. With expertise in Muay Thai and jiu-jitsu, Santos is expected to focus on grappling techniques in an attempt to secure the win. On the other hand, Shevchenko will rely on her agility and quickness to maintain a standing fight and counter Santos’ moves.
In the eyes of oddsmakers, Shevchenko is considered a highly dominant favorite, with odds typically hovering around -600.
DraftKings has set the over/under for this bout at 3.5 rounds, favoring the over with significantly lower odds. The reason behind this decision is the anticipated clash of styles, leading them to believe that this fight has the potential to go the distance.
Caesars boosts available for UFC 275

- The odds for Brendan Allen, Steve Garcia, Jake Matthews, and Seung Woo Choi to emerge victorious in UFC 275 have been increased to +600.
