Daniel Cormier will pay out $21.50 for every $10 bet or $215 for every $100 bet should he win against favorite Stipe Miocic. Enjoy live streaming updates @PremierPerHead.
The event is taking place at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas and Miocic is defending his heavyweight world title for the fourth time. Back in January, Miocic defended his world title for a record 3rd time against Francis Ngannou where he received a unanimous decision to retain his title.
Cromier's head coach Javier Mendez said of the two fighters in UFC 226, referencing Cromier as "DC": “[Stipe has] great hands,” Mendez said. “Also, he has good power backing up, going forward — he’s extremely well-rounded, he’s got a good IQ. He’s got everything. And with ‘DC,’ what edges him out a little bit is in the wrestling. (He’s) a little higher wrestler. I think we have more striking opportunities with what we have, but the power factor goes to [Miocic], the height factor goes to him.
“But that’s nothing new to ‘DC.’ When he fought as a heavyweight for the 12 or 13 fights, he never lost a round in any of his heavyweight fights. The rounds that DC’s ever lost were in the light heavyweight division, but never in the heavyweight. Honestly speaking, I’m expecting that to happen again where he just dominates the heavyweights.”
