She may have been brutalized last time in the cage, and has been on the shelf for over a year, but the oddsmakers are still firmly in Ronda Rousey’s corner. The odds have opened for Rousey’s return to the cage against current UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion Amanda Nunes at UFC 207, with the former champ a healthy favorite.
As these words are being typed, Rousey is a -240 favorite, meaning she is expected to beat Nunes and win back her UFC crown 71% of the time. However, the money has been coming in on newly-crowned champ Nunes since the odds have opened – Rousey opened as a -320 favorite (Nunes has moved from +240 to +225).
