The Ultimate returns to the land of the kangaroo for another edition of Fight Night this Saturday (2). UFC Perth brings, in the main fight, the Fighting Nerds smoker, Carlos Prates , who seeks his chance to compete for the belt in the welterweight division (up to 77kg). But, to show that he deserves to fight for the top of the category, the Brazilian will need to prove his slight favoritism against former champion Jack Della Maddalena in the betting houses.
According to Stake , Carlos Prates is the favorite in the match. At the current odds, a victory for the Brazilian pays 1,82 for every real bet, meaning a R$100 bet would yield R$182 if he wins. On the other hand, someone betting the same amount on Della Maddalena would receive R$198 if the Australian wins.

Carlos Prates has a professional record of 23 wins and seven losses. The Brazilian is currently on a great run in the UFC, with six wins, all by knockout, which have earned him performance bonuses.
On the other side, Jack Della Maddalena has 18 wins and three losses in his career. The Australian is coming off a loss to Islam Makhachev at UFC 322, where he lost the belt after being dominated by the Russian.

Despite coming off six consecutive losses, Tai Tuivasa is the favorite against Louie Sutherland in their heavyweight (up to 120,2kg) bout on the main card.
According to the official UFC betting site in Brazil , Tuivasa has odds of 1,45, while Sutherland has odds of 2,75. In practice, a R$100 bet on the New Zealander would yield R$145 in case of victory, while the same amount on his rival would generate a return of R$275.

With only one win in his last four fights, Beneil Dariush enters the UFC Perth octagon under pressure to win. However, the veteran's mission is to end the hype surrounding Quinlan Salkilld, who is the overwhelming favorite among bettors.
Dariush is listed with odds of 4,50, which represents a return of R$ 450 for every R$ 100 wagered on its victory.
