UFC Fight Night odds for the main event and co-main event
Dominick Reyes vs Jiri Prochazka Odds
Dominick "The Devastator" Reyes enters this fight as a slim +110 underdog and is the No. 3-ranked light heavyweight contender. Reyes is coming off back-to-back losses after starting his MMA career with a perfect 12-0 mark.
Reyes lost by close decision to Jon Jones in February 2020 before getting knocked out by current champ Jan Blachowicz last September when the two battled for the vacant 205-pound title. The 31-year-old is a dangerous striker who uses his length and kicking ability to attack from a variety of angles.
Procházka is the slim -138 favorite for this fight and is No. 6 in the light heavyweight rankings. Procházka has a career record of 27-3-1 but only has one fight in the octagon, a first-round knockout of Volkan Oezdemir in his UFC debut last July.
The 28-year-old is the former Rizin light heavyweight champ and 17 of his last 18 wins have come by way of KO/TKO, including notable wins over "King Mo" Muhammed Lawal and current Bellator light heavyweight champion Vadim Nemkov.
Cub Swanson vs. Giga Chikadze Odds
Swanson will enter the octagon as a +170 underdog on Saturday and is coming off back-to-back wins to snap a four-fight losing skid. The longtime MMA veteran has compiled a 27-11 career record and has received 10 Fight of the Night bonuses.
Chikadze is the -200 favorite for the co-main event and is a perfect 5-0 in the octagon. The 32-year-old is a former professional kickboxer and is an adept striker who knocked out Jamey Simmons in the first round in his previous fight in November.
