Tyron Woodley Opens as Favorite Against Colby Covington For Possible Title Unification Fight

June 13, 2018 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Tyron Woodley has opened as a slight favorite against Colby Covington in a possible title unification fight between them. MMA Fighting reports that Woodley is a -140 favorite over Covington (+110) for the possible fight, which is not yet confirmed with a date or location.

The odds give Covington a better chance to beat Woodley than the latter’s previous opponent, Demian Maia. Maia was a 2-to-1 underdog in his fight against Woodley at UFC 214 in July of 2017. Covington captured the interim welterweight title at UFC 225 with a unanimous decision victory over Rafael dos Anjos.
