Preview, Prediction, And Odds For Tony Ferguson vs Bobby Green
Tony Ferguson, who previously held the UFC lightweight interim championship title, will be facing Bobby Green at UFC 291 on July 29 at Vivint Arena in Salt Lake City. Despite ongoing issues, Ferguson is still set to compete in the upcoming fight. Bobby Green has a MMA record of 29 wins, 14 losses, and 1 draw, with 10 wins and 9 losses in UFC fights, while Ferguson has a MMA record of 25 wins and 8 losses, with 15 wins and 6 losses in UFC fights.
Ferguson hasn’t won a fight in his last five attempts, while Green’s last victory was against Nasrat Haqparast in February 2022. However, Green’s luck hasn’t been great either, as he has lost to tough opponents like Islam Makhachev and Drew Dober, and his most recent fight against Jared Gordon didn’t have a clear winner.
In terms of betting odds, Green has a higher chance of winning with a -350 favoritism, while Ferguson is considered an underdog with a +270 odds. Our prediction is that Ferguson will most likely face another loss, despite his impressive fighting record and unique style. On the other hand, although Green has not won in his last three matches, he has the advantage of being younger and faster than Ferguson at present.
