UFC interim bantamweight title holder Petr Yan is a clear favorite of the fight with a full-fledged champion Aljamain Sterling, which will take place on March 5 at UFC 272 in Las Vegas.

So, the leading bookmakers offer to bet on Yan to win with a coefficient of 1.25. The similar figure towards Sterling is 4.20.

Last March Yan lost to Sterling by disqualification due to a prohibited knee blow and lost his belt. The rematch was scheduled for October 30 at UFC 267, but the American withdrew from the fight due to injury. As a result, the Russian fought for the interim title with Cory Sandhagen, winning by unanimous decision.
