Heads Up, Gamblers: Ronda Rousey Is Already Favored to Beat Christiane Cyborg in Their Fantasyland Matchup

(If you are implying that this photo has anything to do with odds...you're probably right.)  You've gotta love the kind of needless analysis and ridiculous speculation that the Internet era has brought to modern sports. Despite the fact that the Ronda Rousey vs. Christiane Cyborg fight is still trapped in MMA purgatory, the mere possibility of the matchup is apparently enough for several gambling sites around the MMA blogosphere to start laying out the betting lines for what could be the biggest fight in WMMA history. If it ever happens. Currently, the women's bantamweight champion is listed between a -160 to -170 favorite over the former featherweight champ on various sports gambling sites. Sure, Christiane hasn't fought in nearly a year since she was stripped of her title for a positive steroids test, and Ronda hasn't met a challenger with anywhere near the kind of devastating knockout power that Cyborg possesses, but who are we to judge the motives of our cyber-bookie overlords?
