McGregor vs. Gaethje Fight Odds

It appears Conor McGregor and Justin Gaethje will meet in the octagon this summer, and the oddsmakers have already set a line for the potential fight.

McGregor opened as a -180 favorite while Gaethje is a +155 underdog. It's been nearly a year since Gaethje was an underdog (March 30, 2019 vs. Barboza).

“What the fans, and frankly the fighters, don’t want is a dull fight or a dull lead up to a fight,” McGregor told Bleacher Report. “I enjoy every aspect, and the fans deserve to see and hear the real me. I am very passionate and eager to please the fans and win for them and my family. I am willing to fight anyone and have proved that time and time again. I look for a good scrap, and if it isn’t going to be that, I have no interest.

“The money is not why I do this. I am a very rich man, and my children and those that come after them will be just fine. I love the fight game. I learned many things boxing in Crumlin where I grew up, and my deep love is why I do this today. I will be in the octagon again soon and fully expect to box again. You will need to stay tuned, but trust me – the fans will enjoy. Giving them what they want and entertaining them is important to me.”
