The Ultimate returns to Canada for another Fight Night edition this Saturday (18). UFC Winnipeg features, in the main event, Brazilian Gilbert Durinho , who seeks to recover from the worst phase of his career and defend his 11th place in the welterweight rankings (up to 77 kg) against Mike Malott . To surprise the home team, however, the world jiu-jitsu champion will have to overcome his underdog status in the betting houses.

According to Stake , Durinho is the underdog in the matchup. At the current odds, a victory for the Brazilian pays 3,25 for every real bet, meaning a R$100 bet would yield R$325 if he wins. On the other hand, someone betting the same amount on Malott would receive R$135 if the Canadian wins.
