The MMA fight betting world recently saw what the heavyweight division in the UFC betting odds is all about and there is not much taking place in the UFC 117 betting event.



Lesnar is not only the reigning and unified UFC gambling heavyweight champ but he’s also a huge global star and a pop culture icon. There is practically nothing that can go down throughout the UFC 117 probabilities tournament that will take the spot light from this MMA gambling star since that’s rare territory for an MMA contender.

But there is a heavyweight match scheduled for the UFC 117 gambling lineup and a pretty intriguing young contender by the name of Junior dos Santos that may one day in the not too remote future get a shot at knocking Lesnar from his perch atop the UFC gambling world.

First he’ll have to wipe out his UFC 117 probabilities challenger, American Roy Nelson. Nelson is an intimidating challenger in his own right and has shown some extraordinary abilities in these previous MMA gambling matches. Nevertheless, his 15-4 lifetime track record in the MMA betting tournament has come from substandard tournament and when he faces dos Santos in the UFC 117 probabilities tournament it will likely be his 1st time fighting in a UFC Main Card.

On the other hand, Dos Santos has a career track record of 11-1 going into the UFC 117 gambling competition, at the age of just 26, with four of those victories coming throughout UFC gambling Main Events. He has won his last six matches and he’s yet to lose in a sanctioned UFC gambling event. He’s an up and coming contender in the heavyweight division and with an extraordinary outing vs Nelson he could pretty easily be fast-tracked for a UFC gambling championship competition vs Lesnar.

After successfully reigning his UFC undisputed heavyweight championship vs Shane Carwin at UFC 116, Brock Lesnar could be back in action in a little over two months. Lesnar’s next championship defense is planned to be vs the unbeaten Cain Velasquez. The champ of that match should then go on to guard the heavyweight tournament vs the champ of the Junior dos Santos versus Roy Nelson tournament at UFC 117.

Roy Nelson, also known as “Big Country”, has submission abilities. He tends to stand and strike but he’s pretty at ease going to the ground. He’s known for his grappling abilities and agility and he is a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Nelson is very difficult and has only lost by stoppage one time in his career. He was anticipated to confront Cheick Kongo at UFC 116 but a back injury has benched Kongo leading to the termination of the match.

Dos Santos is from the standard Brazilian contender mold, yet as 6′ 4″ 238 he’s much larger than most fighters and a much more competent contender than most heavyweights. It might not be too long before he’s wearing the UFC betting heavyweight champion’s belt with an extraordinary background in martial arts and submission training, paired with his obvious power.
