UFC 224 goes down this Saturday from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and Bloody Elbow is back to bring you the betting odds. The top of the billing will see the promotion’s women’s bantamweight champ Amanda Nunes (-900) clocking in as the card-high betting favorite as she looks to defend her title against hefty underdog Raquel Pennington (+600). Top-5 middleweights will be featured in the card’s co-main event, with the #2 Ronaldo Souza (-150) favored to beat the #5 Kelvin Gastelum (+130).

Over half of the scheduled UFC 224 matchups involve the betting favorite being found with a moneyline of -200 or larger, with the remaining six favorites falling at -155 or smaller. The tightest line on the card belongs to Cezar Ferreira vs. Karl Roberson, with Ferreira being had anywhere from -115 up to +110 and Roberson rocking a tag of -115.
