UFC Fight Night: Kattar vs. Ige odds

Odds courtesy of OddsShark.com

The UFC undoubtedly spent several million dollars to make Fight Island in Abu Dhabi a reality, so the organization will want to stage as many cards as possible there – although it’s obviously not exactly easy to get to the United Arab Emirates for those from the United States, which is the UFC’s primary market.

Following Saturday’s mega-UFC 251 card, there’s another one Wednesday night on Fight Island that is headlined by a featherweight bout between Americans Calvin Kattar and Dan Ige. The main card starts at 10 p.m. ET, which is 6 a.m. in the UAE. No cards there are meant for locals to attend – the early start doesn’t matter – but for television in the USA.

The 32-year-old Kattar (21-4) is ranked No. 6 in the featherweight division. “The Boston Finisher” lost to No. 2 Zabit Magomedsharipov as a +220 underdog last November by unanimous decision but bounced back in May with a second-round KO (elbows) of ninth-ranked Jeremy Stephens.
