Jourdain Targets Finish in UFC Vancouver Bout With Grant as Odds Tilt His Way

Oddsmakers lean to the Canadian at -170 for the featured prelim in Vancouver.

Overview

  • Charles Jourdain faces Davey Grant on Saturday in a bantamweight featured prelim at UFC Fight Night 262 at Rogers Arena.
  • At media day, Jourdain said he expects his finishing power to translate at 135 pounds and warned he will hunt a guillotine if Grant wrestles.
  • Jourdain is coming off a bonus-winning submission of Victor Henry in his bantamweight debut and carries a 16-8-1 record with multiple recent finishes.
  • Grant, 15-7, embraces the role of visiting 'bad guy,' says he is chasing a knockout, and returns quickly after a July upset of Da’Mon Blackshear.
  • DraftKings lists Jourdain as a -170 favorite over Grant at +142, and a ClutchPoints preview picks the Canadian while noting Grant’s durability and past vulnerability to submissions.
