The Golden Nugget sports book in Las Vegas is wasting no time after Ronda Rousey disposed of her latest opponent in the UFC Octagon. Rousey’s resounding 30-second victory in Brazil against Bethe Correia only increased the undefeated fighter’s mystique as a possible showdown with Cris Justino aka “Cyborg” looms.
This mega-fight is not a given, yet posting odds on this potential showdown makes sense for any Las Vegas sports book given the increasing popularity of Rousey.
The Golden Nugget sports book opened with the following line this morning (August 4, 2015).
* UFC Women’s Bantamweight Division Rousey vs Cyborg *
Rousey -300
Cyborg +250
*Match must take place prior to 8/1/16*
It will be interesting to see what kind of activity this bet will generate and if any of the smart money comes in on Cyborg. I expect the Rousey line will climb to -400 territory rather quickly.
