Israel Adesanya favorite to successfully defend title against Robert Whittaker at UFC 271

Two years after their first fight, Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker are once again set to go to war at UFC 271. The pair first met each other in the headliner of UFC 243 back in 2019 where 'The Last Stylebender' picked up an emphatic TKO victory in the second round.

Adesanya comes into this fight after a dominant win over Marvin Vettori at UFC 263. Whittaker, on the other hand, is on a three-fight win streak and last defeated Kelvin Gastelum.

Whittaker now has a chance to redeem himself and recapture his lost throne. Heading into the fight, online sportsbook BetRegal has pegged Adesanya as a -260 favorite and Robert as the +210 underdog. This means you need to wager $260 to win a $100 on Adesanya whereas wagering a $100 on Whittaker could earn you $210.
