As Conor McGregor (pictured) says, “Gods recognize Gods,” and the Gambling Gods are recognizing Mcgregor as the UFC’s impending lightweight champion.
Despite what Dos Anjos has done to Anthony Pettis to capture the crown and to Donald Cerrone to retain his title, the powers that be believe McGregor will make a successful lightweight debut to become the UFC’s first two-way champ.
McGregor is a slight 1.5-1 odds-on favorite to dethrone Dos Anjos. The Brazilian, meanwhile, checks in just behind as a +120 underdog.
