Former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley has opened as the betting underdog against Leon Edwards ahead of their all-but-confirmed welterweight showdown at UFC London next year.
That’s according to Betting Insider Journal, who released the odds for the proposed welterweight matchup on Thursday.
Woodley, 37, has opened as the +115 underdog while Edwards, 28, is the -147 favorite.
This may come as a surprise, given that Woodley ruled the welterweight throne for almost three years and, despite being dethroned by Kamaru Usman, is still considered one of the greatest welterweight fighters in the world.
