Roman Dolidze and Nassourdine Imavov will decide who will be in the Top 5 contention talks in 2024 and who will have to fight for his place in the promotion. The odds are in place and bookmakers have a clear favorite. Here are the best Dolidze vs Imavov odds.
UFC Fight Night 235 Odds: The Best Dolidze vs Imavov Odds
Dolidze vs Imavov Odds – Moneyline
Unlike most main events, bookmakers at least gave both fighters a chance and we can make a profit on either side. That is, of course, if we get our predictions right. Nevertheless, Nassourdine Imavov is considered the favorite ahead of this bout and you can bet on him to win at -175 right now. Roman Dolidze has been given +150, which is not a bad line if you believe that the veteran can overcome the speed and strength of Imavov.
As always, the method of victory market presents us with the opportunity to pick a winner and the exact way in which he will win this bout. In some cases, this is perfidious market to bet on as the matchup is not always convenient. Sadly, this is one of those cases. We believe that the decision is highly probable while bookmakers believe that one of the fighters can finish this one early. Here are the odds:
• Dolidze to win via Decision/Technical Decision: +750
• Dolidze to win via KO/TKO or DQ: +450
• Dolidze to win via Submission: +500
• Draw: +8000
• Imavov to win via Decision/Technical Decision: +250
• Imavov to win via KO/TKO or DQ: +250
• Imavov to win via Submission: +550
Dolidze vs Imavov Round to Win Odds
As always, you can choose to go into the deep waters and bet on the specific round in which this fight will end. Sometimes, when we have two heavyweight strikers or a fight between fighters on different skill levels, this is a good market. In those cases, we can bet on the early finish and make a good profit. In this situation, we feel like the risk is not justified. Anyway, here are the Dolidze vs Imavov odds:
• Round 1: Bookmakers actually believe that the early finish is very possible as the odds for Dolidze are +850 next to +650 for Imavov. • Round 2: The second-round finish has been valued at +1000 for Roman and +750 for Nassourdine. • Round 3: You can bet on either fighter to win in this round at +1200 for Dolidze and +1000 for Imavov. • Round 4: Bet on the finish in the fourth round at +1600 for Roman and +1200 for Imavov. • Round 5: A late finish is possible but bookmakers consider it unlikely – +2200 for Dolidze and +1800 for Imavov.
This feels like the best market of all of the available options for this main event. Bookmakers suggest that this bout will end early and the fighters will not reach the championship rounds (4 and 5). Our expectations are the complete opposite – we even believe that one of the fighters will win via decision. This makes the odds here quite promising and appealing.
• Over 1.5 Rounds: -330 • Over 2.5 Rounds: +230 • Over 3.5 Rounds: -110 • Over 4.5 Rounds: +140
• Under 1.5 Rounds: +230 • Under 2.5 Rounds: +125 • Under 3.5 Rounds: -130 • Under 4.5 Rounds: -190
