UFC 168 will take place from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada with the main card bouts airing live on PPV at 10PM ET.
The main event of Saturday’s card is a bout for the UFC Middleweight Championship as Chris Weidman (10-0) defends his title against former champion Anderson Silva (33-5). According to oddsmakers at Bovada.lv, Silva is favored to regain his belt, as he has odds of -170 to win, while the champion has a money line of +140 to prevail. Weidman ended the lengthy title reign of Silva at UFC 162 back in July with a second-round KO. The knockout came when Silva was doing his usual mocking of his opponent, keeping his hands down and swaying from side-to-side. Weidman managed to catch Silva and knock him out. Weidman is a talented fighter with clear KO power, but it is unclear if Silva took the first fight as seriously as he needed to. A focused Silva is expected to win this fight, but he tends to try and entertain more than win sometimes.
The co-main event of Saturday’s card is a UFC Women’s Bantamweight Championship bout as Ronda Rousey (7-0) defends the belt against Miesha Tate (13-4). According to oddsmakers, Rousey is the clear favorite, as she has odds of -750 to win, while Tate has been given a money line of +475 to prevail. These two met back in March of 2012 as part of Strikeforce, with Rousey scoring a first-round submission win, as she has in all seven of her professional fights. Tate has lost two of her last three fights, but has a big rivalry going with Rousey. Tate is a wrestling specialist, but that plays right into Rousey’s hands with her armbar abilities.
