The MFM Grand Garden Arena will likely be packed to the gills as this site will play host to the UFC betting competition on Saturday July 3rd.
And save for a few family members and friends of the various competitors involved in the UFC 116 probabilities action, almost everyone in the building will be there to make MMA bets on one single fight. And as if anybody needs a tip as to which match in the UFC 116 betting line up that folks are dying to see, it's the game that involves the 2 largest men in the building: Brock Lesnar and Shane Carwin.
No matter how much buzz this UFC betting Main Event gets, it may not be enough. And that's not because of the talent of the competitors involved (naturally, both of the massive men lack the general all-around MMA skills that most UFC wagering winners have) but basically because they are massive individuals. The sports betting public to watch heavyweights beat each other senseless, even if they lack the grace of the lighter competitors. There is a big possibility that all of the buzz will result in about 2 minutes of competition.
Carwin has never gotten from the first round, winning 7 of his matches via knockouts and five via submission. And Lesnar only came from a near-death experience, despite the fact that he does have a fairly extraordinary history. A fight with a significant illness that held him to a hospital bed, unable to even eat for 2 weeks, kept him from the ring for several months. In fact, this match is actually a rescheduling of a match that was meant to happen last year between Lesnar and Carwin.
And the UFC wagering public also loves stars. There is no star greater than Lesnar right now in the MMA betting action. Lesnar is the extraordinary MMA fighter that has general pop culture stardom and a pretty high level of skill inside the Octagon. Plenty of sports betting buffs have been drawn to this UFC 116 betting competition by his superstar alone.
But after this Main Event between these 2 substantial men, the fight card, or at least the UFC 116 probabilities action, is fairly slim pickings. Peppered throughout the rest of the Main Card there are names here and there of competitors that MMA betting buffs have most likely heard of, or maybe even watched combat a more well known fighter in some other UFC betting competitions, but for the most part this is about as lackluster collection of matches as we've watched at a UFC betting event this year.
The only other match that genuinely sparks any interest is the UFC 116 betting competition between Japanese new-comer Yoshihiro Akiyama and Chris Leben. Akiyama is a huge MMA celebrity in Asia and his fighting pedigree is impeccable. His adversary, Chris Leben, hardly seems up to the task, despite the fact that he has the likelihood to become a substantial star in the UFC betting action.
Lesnar versus Carwin will happen live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
