What a difference 48 hours can make.
After being in the middle of the pack for the 22nd season of “Dancing with the Stars,” UFC strawweight Paige VanZant now sits atop the odds list as the series is set to begin.
VanZant was a 10-1 favorite, according to numbers published by MMAjunkie.com on Tuesday. However, after moving to 5-1 later in the day, she now finds herself as the favorite at 2-1, right ahead of NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown, NFL linebacker Von Miller and singer Wanya Morris.
Chuck Liddell and Randy Couture both previously competed on DWTS, placing 11th each.
The series begins airing Monday on ABC with Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews as hosts.
