Check out the betting odds for tonight’s UFC Vegas 19 card, where Curtis Blaydes is severely favored over Derrick Lewis in the main event.

It’s fight day for UFC Vegas 19, which is going down from the promotion’s APEX facility in Nevada, USA. The top of the card will enjoy top-5 heavyweights going at it when the #2 rated, Curtis Blaydes, and the #4 ranked, Derrick Lewis, get it popping. Bloody Elbow is back to bring you the betting odds for this battle of streaking big boys, as well as for the rest of the UFC Vegas 19 lineup.

Blaydes and his stellar wrestling threat is majorly favored over “The Black Beast” and his porous takedown defense. Odds.com has Curtis listed with an expensive -395 betting line, with a winning $100 bet bringing back a total of $125.32. As for Derrick, his moneyline is sitting around the +379 mark, with a $100 gamble potentially paying out a lump sum of +479.

The oddsmakers do not believe that this 25-minute main event will be needing the scorecards to determine a winner. The exotic bet ‘fight goes the distance’ has the ‘no’ prop favored at -280, with a +250 comeback on the ‘Yes’ option. According to the betting lines, you can forget about the championship/main event rounds. The over/under for this five-frame fight has been set at 2.5 rounds. Gamblers can lay the price on the ‘under’ for a cost of -120, or take the price on the ‘over’ at an underdog value of +114.

Not only is Blaydes projected to win the fight, but he’s also expected to finish it. His ‘inside the distance’ prop can be acquired with a favored price tag of -160. On the other side of the gate, Derrick Lewis’ ‘inside the distance’ bet is on deck with a sizable underdog value of +500. If you foresee these heavyweights making it to the final bell, then ‘Blaydes by decision’ is posted up at a beefy +333 tick, with ‘Lewis by decision’ floating around at an altitude of +1200.
