The United Center in Chicago will host UFC 225, which features a card full of intriguing fights, including the rematch between middleweight champ Robert Whittaker and challenger Yoel Romero. Whittaker took the interim title in a win over Romero in 2017 and then got the full belt when Georges St-Pierre vacated the title. The co-main event features a bout between Rafael dos Anjos and Colby Covington for the interim welterweight title. Some other interesting fights feature Holly Holm against Megan Anderson, who has impressed as an Invicta FC featherweight and now makes her UFC debut. Tai Tuivasa, a heavyweight prospect from down under, gets his toughest challenge to date when he faces former chap Andrei Arlovski. Check out the fight card, the fight odds and our MMA betting insights on a couple of the matchups.
