Daniel Cormier vs Derrick Lewis Betting Odds - UFC 230: Cormier vs. Lewis - November 03, 2018 - Live betting lines, fighter and matchup stats.

After months of scrambling to put together an exciting main event for the UFC’s return to pay-per-view at UFC 230, the world’s leading mixed martial arts promotion landed on a UFC Heavyweight Championship bout between Daniel Cormier and Derrick Lewis.

This all came together under four weeks ago, a couple of days after Lewis impressed those watching the Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Conor McGregor fight card in Las Vegas.

UFC 230 will take place in the legendary Madison Square Garden on Saturday, November 3.

We’re here to bring you all of the best bets for this event.

Daniel Cormier vs. Derrick Lewis

Daniel Cormier vs. Derrick Lewis is a heavyweight title fight that absolutely no one could have predicted this time last year.

With Cormier doing work in the light heavyweight division and Lewis recovering from a defeat to Mark Hunt in New Zealand, both looked highly unlikely of competing at the top of the heavyweight division.

However, ultimately, that defeat to Hunt was Lewis’ only downfall in his last ten fights. With an impressive string of performances, he’s now more than earned his shot at the champion.

Moreover, Cormier never seemed likely to return to the 265-pound category that his teammate Cain Velasquez had previously reigned over. But “DC” stepped up and knocked out Stipe Miocic inside the first round to become the heavyweight champion. Even then, he wasn’t expected to return to the cage this soon.

Best odds for Daniel Cormier vs. Derrick Lewis

• Daniel Cormier: -700 (Bovada)
• Derrick Lewis: +500 (Pinnacle)

This fight holds everything for a fan of mixed martial arts. Although “DC” is expected to roll through the challenger with ease, there’s always the chance that Lewis lands his famed knockout blow and walks out of Madison Square Garden with the belt strapped over his shoulder.

However, we’ll be siding with the champion, Daniel Cormier, who should wear down Lewis in the second and third round before eventually securing a finish.

Bet on Daniel Cormier to win in Round 3: +700 (Bovada)

Chris Weidman vs. Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza

It’s not the co-main event that we were all excited for, but Chris Weidman vs. Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza is still an excellent fight between two superb middleweight fighters.

Weidman will be attempting to make it two in a row as he looks to build from a victory against current title challenger Kelvin Gastelum in July last year.

Moreover, “Jacare” will be looking to create some momentum for the first time in a while after dropping two of his last three contests.

Best odds for Chris Weidman vs. Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza

• Chris Weidman: -185 (Bovada)
• Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza: +160 (Pinnacle)

It’s no secret that “Jacare” is aging and doesn’t have the same athleticism and power that he once had. This was best displayed against Robert Whittaker in April last year when he struggled to secure a takedown and eventually was overrun by the current champion in round two. There’s also the fact that he’s quick to gas out and fatigue dramatically as the fight progresses.

But so does Chris Weidman. Despite three consecutive defeats to some of the division’s very best not that long ago, Weidman enters this one as a favorite for a good reason. His fast pace at the beginning of the fight combined with masterful wrestling should be enough to get him over the line against Souza.

Bet on Chris Weidman to win: -185 (Bovada)

David Branch vs. Jared Cannonier

As “Jacare” shifted up to the co-main event slot against Chris Weidman, David Branch was handed a new opponent.

Fortunately, Jared Cannonier – who was preparing for a fight in Argentina in two weeks – stepped in and replaced Souza in this high-level matchup.

Best odds for David Branch vs. Jared Cannonier

• David Branch: -349 (Pinnacle)
• Jared Cannonier: +280 (Bovada)

David Branch is criminally underrated, and he might always be until he wins a UFC championship.

With just one defeat (against Luke Rockhold) in his last 13 fights, Branch has enjoyed tremendous success in WSOF and a decent start to his UFC career. This opportunity against Cannonier is not one that will push him up the rankings, but it is one that can definitely earn him a shot at the top-tier of the middleweight division, especially if he does it in style.

Jared Cannonier will be looking to snap a two-fight losing streak when he makes the drop down to middleweight this weekend at UFC 230. Formerly competing as a light heavyweight and even competing at heavyweight for a little while, Cannonier is shredding weight for this fight and taking it on short notice.

That’s a tough situation for any fighter, let alone when you’re coming up against David Branch.

While the odds seem to be siding with Branch by decision, we’re going to lean on Branch to win inside the distance.

Bet on Total Rounds – Under 2.5: +110 at (Pinnacle)

Karl Roberson vs. Jack Marshman

With fights falling from the card left, right, and center, Karl Roberson and Jack Marshman have been called up to compete on UFC 230’s main card.

Best odds for Karl Roberson vs. Jack Marshman

• Karl Roberson: -275 (Bovada)
• Jack Marshman: +245 (Pinnacle)

Karl Roberson has been an exciting addition to the UFC’s roster since joining the promotion last year. His string of five first-round stoppages came to an end when he faced Cezar Ferreira in May this year when he was submitted in the first round. An excellent kickboxer, Roberson might want to keep this one standing and outwork the relatively one-dimensional Jack Marshman.

Marshman is almost solely focused on fighting with his hands. Bringing his boxing experience with him to the cage, Marshman is always capable of landing heavy and finishing the fight. While this has worked for him for the better part of his career, there will come a time and place when his boxing-focused approach will fail against the more well-rounded mixed martial artists.

This might not be it. Even in his most recent loss to Thiago Santos, he landed his heavy shots at times but was unable to secure the finish.

At these odds, it’s worth taking a punt on Marshman to secure a finish.

Bet on Jack Marshman: +245 (Pinnacle)

Derek Brunson vs. Israel Adesanya

One of the most highly anticipated fights of the night will get the main card started when Derek Brunson stands across from Israel Adesanya.

Best odds for Derek Brunson vs. Israel Adesanya

• Derek Brunson: +255 (Bovada)
• Israel Adesanya: -309 (Pinnacle)

The hard-hitting Derek Brunson will be looking to return to form at UFC 230. Brunson has dropped three of his last five fights and most recently was starched by “Jacare” at UFC on FOX 27. That defeat snapped a two-fight winning streak that involved big KO/TKO wins against Daniel Kelly and Lyoto Machida that occurred just after a “robbery” defeat against Anderson Silva.

Israel Adesanya will be ready to shine and impress all of the fans watching the pay-per-view this weekend. His flashy striking style isn’t just for appearance; it’s equally as devastating. With superb accuracy, timing, and reflexes, Adesanya brilliantly controls the tempo of striking and navigates his pathway to victory while standing.

There’s a risk, of course, that he might get stuck underneath Brunson for minutes at a time and that’s certainly a dangerous proposition. Ultimately, though, we can see Adesanya cruising to a unanimous decision victory.

Fortunately, there are great odds for this prediction, too.

Bet on Israel Adesanya to win by decision: +300 (Bovada)

The next major MMA event takes place on Saturday night, with UFC Fight Night live from the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

The main event features No. 2-ranked Curtis Blaydes meeting No. 4-ranked Derrick Lewis in heavyweight action.

As always with a UFC event, there are certainly plenty of bets to be made. Let's take a look at some of them.

UFC Fight Night odds for Blaydes vs. Lewis

Curtis Blaydes: -450

Derrick Lewis: +333

(All odds via BetMGM)

BetMGM has Blaydes installed as a massive favorite — as of Wednesday he comes in at -450, meaning you'd need to bet $450 to win $100. Meanwhile, Lewis is a +333, meaning if you pluck down $100, you'd win $333.

Blaydes (14-2, one no-contest) enters the contest on a four-fight winning streak, including a unanimous decision win over No. 5-ranked Alexander Volkov in a UFC Fight Night headliner back in June. A win against Lewis would move Blaydes toward his first UFC title shot.

Lewis (24-7, one no-contest), a former heavyweight title challenger, is on a good run of his own. The Texas native has won three consecutive bouts, including a second-round TKO victory against No. 10-ranked Aleksei Oleinik in a UFC Fight Night main event back in August. Getting a victory over Blaydes would give 'The Black Beast' another opportunity at UFC gold after losing by second-round submission to Daniel Cormier at UFC 230 in November 2018.

When you look at Blaydes and Lewis' respective resumes and fighting styles, you can see why the oddsmakers are all in on the former. Blaydes' ground game is second to none and the best in the heavyweight division. Look at what he did to Mark Hunt and Alexander Volkov. He took them down at will, suffocated, mauled, and beat them up the entire way.

Derrick Lewis Fight

Suppose guys are stuffing Blaydes' takedown attempts or somehow getting back up to their feet. In that case, the Illinois native has no problem letting his hands go and slinging the leather, evidenced by the destructive TKO wins over ranked contenders Oleinik, Alistair Overeem, and former champion Junior dos Santos.

Plain and simple, Lewis is a one-trick pony. He's looking for the knockout for the duration of the fight. Out of his 24 career wins, 19 of them have come by knockout, with 11 coming in the UFC. Lewis is always one punch away from putting your lights out — with his last-second KO of Volkov at UFC 229 in a fight he was down on the scorecards.

In the buildup to Saturday night, Blaydes' made it clear that he would try and take Lewis down and batter him for his path to victory, understanding the Texan possesses uncanny power.

Does Lewis have a chance? Of course, he does. It is a fight, and anything can happen. Blaydes will get Lewis down and wear him down to the point of exhaustion. From there, it will be up to Blaydes on how he wants to finish things off as he will extend his winning streak to five.

You gain nothing from betting Blaydes unless you have an excessive amount of money to waste. Take a flyer on Lewis, as those odds are too good to pass up on a guy whose ranked number four in the weight class.
