tae-hyun-bang-ufc-fight-night-79 In this week’s Trading Shots, MMAjunkie columnist Ben Fowlkes and retired UFC/WEC fighter Danny Downes discuss the strange betting lines swing that prompted fears of a fix at UFC Fight Night 79, and what such shenanigans could mean for MMA. Fowlkes: If you were paying close attention to prelim betting odds at UFC Fight Night 79 (and I know you were, Danny, you degenerate), you might have noticed something odd. Tae Hyun Bang , who opened as an almost 2-1 favorite against Leo Kuntz , suddenly became a +240 underdog just prior to fight time. The odds swung so dramatically that many sportsbooks reportedly stopped accepting wagers on the fight, supposedly fearing a fix. And you can see why they might fear it, since what could make so much late money come in on a prelim fight for a Fight Pass card in Seoul
