Alexander Gustafsson was gifted a golden ticket when he was granted a title tilt against light heavyweight champion Daniel Cormier (pictured) at UFC 192.
I mean, who gets a shot at the belt after coming off a vicious TKO defeat? Gus does, that’s who!
Unfortunately for “The Mauler,” the Gambling Gods don’t give him much of a shot at leaving Texas with the crown. Gustafsson is pegged as a 2.5-1 underdog against Cormier.
Cormier, meanwhile, is a solid 3.5-1 odds-on favorite to retain his hardware.
