There are plenty of heavy underdogs entering Saturday’s “UFC 163: Aldo vs. Korean Zombie” event. That either means the main card will provide some extremely lopsided results, or there will be an abundance of some long shot lovin’.
“The Korean Zombie” Chan Sung Jung (pictured) is a significant 5-to-1 dark horse against reigning featherweight king Jose Aldo in the night’s featured contest.
Aldo, on the other hand, checks in as a whopping 8-to-1 odds-on favorite to retain his throne in front of his Brazilian brethren.
From a betting standpoint, the middleweight fight between Tom Watson (Even) and Thales Leites (-130) will be the most competitive on the main card.
HSBC Arena in Rio de Janeiro hosts this weekend’s show.
