Bookmakers have named the favorite of the fight Ferguson - Jingliang

Tony Ferguson - Lee Jingliang

Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson expectedly opened with a clear outsider duel with Lee Jingliang, which will take place on December 10 at the UFC 279 tournament in Las Vegas.

So, according to Best Fight Odds, Jingliang's victory is estimated at 1.37. The same indicator towards Ferguson is 3.25.

Recall that in May, Ferguson suffered his fourth defeat in a row, losing by knockout to Michael Chandler. Many experts and fighters believe that it is time for the 38-year-old El Kukuy to leave the sport, but the American is not going to stop and now intends to try his luck at welterweight, in which he successfully performed in the early years of his career.

As for Jingliang, he had his last fight in July, defeating Muslim Salikhov by TKO.
