UFC 83 Odds: Georges St. Pierre Unbeatable?

Montreal is currently up to its baguette in snow. But it’ll be a hot night at the Bell Center come Apr. 19, when the UFC holds its first pay-per-view on Canadian soil. The main event pits Georges St. Pierre, born just south of Montreal in the village of Saint-Isidore, against Matt Serra for the undisputed Welterweight title.

St. Pierre (15-2 lifetime) is the prohibitive favorite at –450, with Serra at +300. This is the second go-around for these two fighters; one year ago at UFC 69, Serra took the strap from GSP as a +1100 underdog. St. Pierre blamed the loss on personal problems, overhauled his staff, and has since out-wrestled former NCAA champion Josh Koscheck and forced Matt Hughes to submit.

Serra (9-4) never got to defend his title after suffering a herniated disc. He claims to be at full strength, but can he stop GSP’s quest for revenge after a year away from the octagon? Snow telling.
