Those who are confident of a stoppage win for Holloway can get odds of 12/1, 14/1, 16/1, 17/1 and 25/1 for first, second, third, fourth and fifth round finishes respectively.

Kattar, meanwhile, is priced at 15/2, 11/1 18/1, 22/1 and 33/1 to win in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth rounds respectively.

The majority of Holloway’s stoppages have come in the third round, when most of his opponents have wilted from his constant pressure.

Holloway vs Kattar isn’t the only UFC on ABC 1 bout worth having a look at.

The card’s co-main event of the evening – the long-awaited welterweight showdown between legends Carlos Condit and Matt Brown – is undoubtedly the second standout fight on the card.

Paddy Power have placed former interim 170 champ Condit as the favourite at 8/15, while Brown is priced at 6/4 to hand The Natural Born Killer his sixth loss in his last seven outings.

Despite having not competed in nearly two-and-a-half years, Argentina’s Santiago Ponzinibbio is the favourite to win his welterweight showdown with China’s Li Jingliang.
