UFC 122 Odds from 5Dimes

MAIN CARD

• Nate Marquardt -210 vs. Yushin Okami +175
• Jorge Rivera -105 vs. Alessio Sakara -115
• Dennis Siver -125 vs. Andre Winner +105
• Amir Sadollah -310 vs. Peter Sobotta +255

PRELIMINARY CARD (un-aired)

• Rob Kimmons +180 vs. Kyle Noke -220
• Alexandre “Cacareco” Ferreira +240 vs. Vladimir Matyushenko -280
• Pascal Krauss -210 vs. Mark Scanlon +175
• Duane “Bang” Ludwig +225 vs. Nick Osipczak -265
• Seth Petruzelli -115 vs. Karlos Vemola -105
• Kris McCray -105 vs. Carlos Eduardo Rocha -115

UFC 122 is only a couple days away and unfortunately no there hasn’t been any new matches added to the card.  In a card lacking any superstars, looking more like a UFC fight night rather than a full fledged event.  Maybe thats why it still isn’t sold out in Germany yet.

The main card features Nate “The Great” Marquardt vs Yushin Okami.  Tough test for Marquardt as Okami finds ways not to lose.  Okami has power but haven’t really seen any knockout power so Nate should be safe from that.  The most likely output will be Nate winning by a 3 round snoozer.  At 5Dimes you can bet how long fights last, so a decision bet would be the favourite here.

Jorge Rivera has been rejuvinated lately, and unfortunately for Sakara he is standing in his warpath.  This will definitely be a slugfest making for the fight of the match.  Look for Rivera to continue his winning ways a pull off a tko here.

Dennis Siver is a fighter with all the moves but not the finish.  He finds ways to lose, and this time it will be to a Winner, Andre that is.  Andre should be successful here.

Amir Sadollah returns to the octagon as a big favourite over who???  Peter Sobotta.  ok..

In another good match Krzysztof Soszynski (hope I spelt it right) vs Goran Reljic will be a very good technical battle, which will likely end up in a decision.  For who?  I don’t have a clue.

On the undercard, one odd that is puzzling me is why Duane Ludwig is a +225 underdog to Nick Osipczak?  Definately worth the underdog pick here.

Also the 2nd last WEC fight card is on tonight featuring Urijah Faber vs Takeya Mizugaki.  Urijah is a heavy -370 favourite here.

UFC 110: Nogueira vs. Velasquez

Location: Sydney, Australia
Venue: Acer Arena
Broadcast: Pay-per-view (airs Saturday, Feb. 20, in North America)

MAIN CARD

• Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Cain Velasquez
• Michael Bisping vs. Wanderlei Silva
• George Sotiropoulos vs. Joe Stevenson
• Ryan Bader vs. Keith Jardine
• Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic vs. Anthony Perosh

PRELIMINARY CARD

• Stephan Bonnar vs. Krzysztof Soszynski
• Brian Foster vs. Chris Lytle
• C.B. Dollaway vs. Goran Reljic
• Igor Pokrajac vs. James Te Huna

Finally, a UFC card that everybody can’t wait for.  Should be the event of the year so far.

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs Cain Velasquez will be an even of a fight as you can get.  Both these guys are damn good at what they do, and if you want to bet on this fight to go to a decision, go for that as picking a winner for this fight will be tough.  I’m stuck.  I think Cain might win, just cause he has been doing enough to win each and every one of his fights, but Big Nog is tough.  Velasquez will squeak out a decision win, final answer.

I have to go with my heart and say that Wanderlei will beat Bisping.  This is a must win for the axe murderer.  If he loses thats it for him, he can entertain but not win.  He’s got a huge heart, and I think he will use it to win this fight.

George Sotiropoulos with a huge home crowd backing might pull off an upset here over Joe Stevenson.   Joe’s a good fighter, but he’s been off and on, worth a shot as George has looked good in previous fights.

Another off and on is Keith Jardine, look for the surprising favourite Ryan Bader to win here.  He has looked awfully good in his previous fights, while Jardine has not.

Mirko Cro Cop should win here, I wished they gave him a top fighter to put him out of the ufc though.

Doesn’t look like theres any interesting undercard underdog to bet on.  I like the favourites on all the undercard fights.
