UFC 309: Betting Preview

Let's start with the defending champion and favorite of this bout, according to bookmakers. Jon "Bones" Jones (23-1-1 in UFC career) looks forward to dominating a rival once again and walking out of this title fight as still the UFC Heavyweight Champion.

The #3 pound-for-pound fighter in UFC has won 3 of his last 4 UFC fights by decision, unlike his title-winning submission win against Cyril Gane (Jones to win by Decision at 4.50 odds @Stake.com).

As for the challenger and sneaky underdog according to many pundits, Stipe Miocic is still a legend despite his latest defeat against Francis Ngannou (14-4 in UFC career). Among others, he is a 2-time UFC Heavyweight Champion, and a third win will put his name next to Randy Couture's.

The Croatian veteran, who has not fought in UFC since March 2021, finished 7 of his last 9 victorious bouts either by knockout or technical knockout (Miocic to win by KO at 9.00 odds @Stake.com).

For a reputable bout like this, players can find a lot of extra betting options, too. Stake.com has given out odds for Jones vs Miocic on markets like Asian Total regarding rounds (Over 1.5 1.57 - Under 1.5 2.25) and whether The Fight Will Go The Distance (Yes 3.65 - No 1.24).
