As good as the UFC Main Events are, the sole poor point about them is the reality that supporters have to wait a month between these MMA events and the UFC 117 betting competition can not arrive soon enough for most fighting supporters.



Devotees are becoming spoiled by the high quality of the competitions this year, since the tournament in the UFC Main Events, for the most part, has been amazing. It appears like every event in 2010 has been a line of celeb fighters and fantastic bouts, 1 after another. The tournament should still be at a quite high level and the matchup may even present better betting chances than we’ve seen in other UFC betting tournaments this year, though several UFC 117 oddsmakers have noted that the upcoming UFC event is as loaded with talent as previous Main Cards.

After his strange showing last time in the Octagon, everybody is dying to see how the world’s greatest MMA fighter, middleweight champ Anderson Silva, performs in the UFC 117 betting competition, but chances are he will clean the mat with this UFC 117 odds opponent Chael Sonnen just as he has with a lot of his opponents in the past.

UFC President Dana White has also gone on record as proclaiming that the victor of the Roy Nelson against Junior Dos Santos match will be next in line for a possibility at the UFC Heavyweight Championship, right after Cain Valzquez’s title shot vs Brock Lesnar later this year.

The main card for UFC 117, which additionally includes a long-awaited fight between Thiago Alves and Jon Fitch, will be started off by the competition between Nelson and Dos Santos. Fitch overcame Alves by TKO at Ultimate Fight Night 5 in June 2006. Alves suffered a knee injury that compelled him to withdraw from a rematch scheduled for UFC 117. A rematch was scheduled for UFC 111, when Alves was again taken off the card because of a brain anomaly. UFC 117 is approaching quick and it seems like this time around the rematch is going to happen.

But they may be missing a number of the greatest competitions of the night if supporters looking to bet on the UFC 117 betting lines only focus on the Main Card. The real UFC 117 betting chances could lie on the Preliminary Card, even if the upcoming UFC event has some top names on the Main Card.

For UFC supporters that aren’t acquainted with this factor of the sport the Preliminary Card is often the greatest gambling opportunity in the sport. This is the element of the night when up and coming fighters can become more well known and earn a chance at the UFC Main Card and possibly a possibility at the title further down the road.

All it takes is 1 fantastic showing on the Preliminary Card to catch the eye of the sport’s organizers and earn a possibility at the big time. This is where practically all the greats of the sport got their chance.

Without a doubt the tournament is much better and practically without exclusion the MMA betting is much better on the undercard than on the Main Card.
