Whenever a UFC pay-per-view nears, the B/R combat sports team comes together to map out ways an underdog can spring an upset.
It's what we do.
Our inkling that Justin Gaethje could break through against Tony Ferguson looks darn good these days, while our long-shot cases for Felicia Spencer against Amanda Nunes and Paulo Costa over Israel Adesanya don't.
This time, as Jennifer Maia challenges for a flyweight title, it's a particularly long shot.
In fact, odds posted by DraftKings suggest it would take a prodigious $1,667 bet on Valentina Shevchenko to yield a measly $100 profit if the champ retains her belt and a $100 wager on Maia to make a tidy $850 if the challenger wins.
