Last weekend, MMA oddsmaker Nick Kalikas opened the remaining betting lines for the main card of UFC 185 at Several Bookmakers. This weekend, he dove a bit deeper into the event and finalized the opening odds for the preliminary portion of the card. UFC 185 will take place from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, which means fans can expect the weirdest and wackiest from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. The seven-fight preliminary card will be split between FX and UFC Fight Pass, with action getting underway at 6:30pm ET. Top billing on the FX portion will go to lightweights Ross Pearson and Sam Stout, both of whom are coming off knockout losses in their last outings and looking to right the ship. A pair of bouts between Rising middleweights Elias Theodorou and Roger Narvaez also find themselves on FX, while lightweights Daron Cruickshank and Beneil Dariush also try to make their mark. Further down the card on UFC Fight Pass, Sergio Pettis will be making his UFC flyweight debut against Dallas native Ryan Benoit. Pettis once thought he would grow out of the flyweight division and moved up to bantamweight prematurely. Size was a big factor in his fights at 135, and now he comes back down to his better weight class. UFC 185 also sees the debut of Irish fighter Joseph Duffy, as he takes on Jake Lindsey. ——————– MAIN CARD (PPV, 10pm ET) UFC Lightweight Title Anthony Pettis -350 Rafael dos Anjos +250 Total: Over 2.5 -180 UFC Strawweight Title Carla Esparza -185 Joanna Jedrzejczyk +145 Total: Over 4.5 -140 Johny Hendricks -270 Matt Brown +190 Total: Over 2.5 -185 Alistair Overeem -190 Roy Nelson +150 Total: Under 1.5 -160 Henry Cejudo -475 Chris Cariaso +325 Total: Over 2.5 -280 ——————– PRELIMINARY CARD (FX, 8pm ET) Ross Pearson -210 Sam Stout +160 Total: Over 2.5 -140 Elias Theodorou -315 Roger Narvaez +235 Total: Over 2.5 -210 Daron Cruickshank -190 Beneil Dariush +150 Total: Over 2.5 -125 Jared Rosholt -230 Josh Copeland +170 Total: Over 1.5 -165 ——————– PRELIMINARY CARD (UFC Fight Pass, 6:30pm ET) Sergio Pettis -425 Ryan Benoit +305 Total: Over 2.5 -140 Joseph Duffy -405 Jake Lindsey +285 Total: Over 1.5 -150 Larissa Pacheco Germaine de Randamie Total: Over 2.5 -160 ——————–
