UFC 117 Gambling Highlight: Dos Santos Is Next Big Thing in the Heavyweight Division - Sports

The forthcoming UFC 117 betting event on August seventh might be more of the same as we've seen the rest of 2010, which has been a excellent year for UFC Main Events.

It's apparent which of the matchups will be the UFC 117 betting event of the night, though the UFC 117 odds event is full of intriguing matchups and skilled competitors. And it is not the Main Event which is being identified as the top competition of the evening.

Everybody understands Silva will defeat Sonnen in a few long and tedious decision which will leave everybody bored to tears and little doubt that Silva is the biggest contender in existence in the MMA wagering event.

But for a real fight the knowledgeable UFC 117 betting fanatics are dying to catch is the heavyweight matchup between American Roy Nelson and up and coming Brazilian contender Junior dos Santos.

The UFC odds action heads into its next Main Event (the UFC 117 betting event at the Oracle Arena in Oakland, CA August seventh) with a new champ and star holding the championship after a long hiatus lacking a star in the heavyweight division.

Brock Lesnar, college wrestling champ, former WWE heavyweight champ and former Minnesota Viking, currently holds the UFC Heavyweight championship and continues the long line of star heavyweights in the UFC odds tournament.

But as there are many up and coming young competitors in the weight class including UFC 117 fighter Junior dos Santos, he may not hold the championship for long. If you're not familiar this name you probably will be after the UFC 117 odds action finishes. At just 25 years old he has taken the MMA wagering by storm and the UFC 117 wagering should be his top chance yet to display his special set of skills.

He's already compiled a quite outstanding resume of UFC betting wins and has an MMA betting record of 11-1 at just 25 years old. His only loss was back in 2007 at a non-UFC betting event in Brazil. Since making the jump up the UFC odds action he's a perfect 5-0 with outstanding wins over the likes of Stefan Struve and Mirko Filipovic. They are as good as anyone else in the heavyweight division has confronted, even if you might say these competitors are scarcely contender material, and when he mops the mat with Roy Nelson in the UFC 117 odds event he will have one more scalp to add to his belt.

Further, ranked #6 and #7 contender in world by MMA Rankings and Sherdog respectively, it is just a matter of time until he receives his championship shot against Lesnar and an excellent showing in the UFC 117 wagering event should get him one step nearer.

Dos Santos is special among UFC heavyweights in that he tips the scales at less than 240 whereas a lot of the players, including his UFC 117 betting opponent, weigh in around 265. But he is much more technically competent than anyone else in the UFC betting action and that skill set should take him far.
