Odds have been released for the upcoming bantamweight title fight between Petr Yan and Aljamain Sterling at UFC 256.

It was recently revealed by UFC president Dana White that the fight would finally take place at the December 12 pay-per-view event and would serve as the co-main event.

And unsurprisingly, the champion in Yan is the betting favorite. However, Sterling is only a slight betting underdog. As per BetOnline.ag, Yan is a -130 favorite while Sterling is a +110 underdog.

That means you would have to bet $130 to make a profit of $100 on Yan while a $100 stake on Sterling would net you $110 in profit. Although it’s completely natural for Yan to be the favorite given that he just defeated Jose Aldo to become the bantamweight champion and is 7-0 in the UFC, Sterling is certainly getting his respect with these odds.

“Funk Master” has won his last five fights in a row and seven in his last eight overall with his most recent victory being an impressive submission win over Cory Sandhagen in June. For context, Aldo was a +205 underdog when he was scheduled to face Yan.

However, these are only the early odds so expect some big line changes as UFC 256 edges near.

What do you think of these odds?

Russian boxing standout, Yan attempts the first title defence of his reign as titleholder, following a vacant championship success opposite featherweight icon, José Aldo ‘Jr.’ in the co-main event of UFC 251 in July from the Flash Forum on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, UAE.

Streaking contender, Sterling earned his long-awaited challenge at bantamweight spoils at UFC 250 in June – scoring a highlight-reel rear-naked choke win over recent UFC Fight Island 5 main event winner, Cory Sandhagen. The promotion appeared reluctant to announce Sterling as the next challenger to the throne with former opponent, Marlon Moraes meeting Sandhagen last weekend, With the latter’s stunning second-round knockout win, Sterling’s status was cemented. Yahoo! Sports reporter, Kevin Iole was first to pen the news of the bantamweight title clash.

I did an interview with @danawhite a few minutes ago. He confirmed that @PetrYanUFC v @funkmasterMMA will be co-main event of UFC 256 on Dec. 12 in Vegas. Nunes-Anderson will be the main.

Undefeated in the promotion and riding a staggering ten-fight unbeaten run – Yan has laid waste to each and every one of his opponents in the UFC so far. The seven-fight Octagon veteran took wins over former flyweight title hopeful, John Dodson, Tiger Schulmann trainee, Jimmie Rivera – and blasted through former WEC 145-pound best, Urijah Faber to earn a vacant title tilt against the aforenoted, Aldo. In an entertaining back-and-forth – Yan eventually scored a fifth-round knockout win over the Manaus favourite.

Matt Serra and Ray Longo MMA product, Sterling added the above mentioned, Sandhagen to an eye-catching five-fight winning run in June. Unbeaten since his stunning knockout loss to one-time title challenger, Moraes – Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu player, Sterling has lodged victories over Brett Johns, Cody Stamann, common opposition, Rivera, and Brazilian mainstay, Pedro Munhoz in June of last year.

UFC 256 takes place on December 12th. from Las Vegas, Nevada – with a featherweight title matching of two-weight world champion, Amanda ‘The Lioness’ Nunes and former Invicta FC 145-pound best, Megan Anderson taking main event honours.
