I know you're a big Alvarez fan but now you're just making shit up.
I looked through the lines for the fight and here they are:
Matchup:
Andre Dida -125
Eddie Alvarez -105
To win tournament:
DIDA +600
ALVAREZ +650
This is about as even as you get in an MMA match. It was the closest fight on the card and closer than 95% of all MMA betting lines I've seen (and I've seen many). I'm 100% positive that you never saw Dida as a -200 favorite at another site, because that would mean Alvarez would've been like a +170 dog, and this would've allowed people to bet on Dida at -125 and Alvarez at +170 for a ridiculously HUUUUGE scalp.
Once again, stop making shit up.
