Tim Elliott vs Ryan Benoit Odds
Tim Elliott vs Ryan Benoit Preview
The odds for this fight are currently relatively even, with Elliott at $1.82 and Benoit out at $2.
Elliott has had an eventful career to date, entering this bout with a 15-11-1 record.
He earned a title shot with Demetrious Johnson in late 2016 and has since gone just 2-5-1.
Known for his unpredictable style, he has 6 submissions, 3 knockouts, and 3 decision wins thus far.
The underdog Benoit enters this contest with a 10-6 career record.
He joined the UFC through TUF in 2013 and has gone 3-4 in his 7 fights since, having alternated results in each of his last 9.
He is very much a striker first and foremost, with 8 of his 10 wins coming by way of KO.
Overall, I’d give the slight edge to Elliott in this contest.
I believe he can hold his own on the feet here and he also possesses a distinct advantage on the ground.
Benoit doesn’t necessarily have the best takedown or ground defence and has been submitted multiple times before.
A submission win is very possible, but I’d stick with the straight up $1.82 on offer.
