Brandon Vera vs Jon Jones UFC LIVE Betting Odds: The main event of tonight’s UFC LIVE on VERSUS Betting Odds will be in the light heavyweight division, as two fighters looking to bounce back from questionable loses meet in the world famous Octagon for the first time. The 1STBANK Center in Broomfield, Colorado, will be filled to capacity on this Sunday night, as (11-4-0) Brandon “The Truth” Vera [+190 ML] takes on a phenomenal fighter and sports betting odds favorite (9-1-0) Jon “Bones” Jones [-240 ML]. all the hard-hitting action of this UFC LIVE Betting Odds event gets under way at 9 PM ET, 7 PM MT, 6 PM PT on VERSUS. After starting his career 6-0 in the UFC, Brandon Vera hit a rough stretch, losing three of his next four fights to Tim Sylvia, Fabricio Werdum and Keith Jardine. But The Truth bounced back nicely from the wall he hit, with a TKO win over Michael Patt and a unanimous decision victory against Krzysztof Soszynski. In position once again for perhaps a title-shot in his nears future, Vera was defeated by the legendary, Randy Couture in a questionable unanimous decision at UFC 105. Nevertheless, the Norfolk, Virginia-native took the experience of losing to Captain America and grew from it. “After fighting Randy, I’ve learned so much it’s like I skipped two grades,” Vera said. Now, Vera faces a youngster that shares the same type of hype he did when he first burst onto the UFC. “He’s regarded as this super-prospect and he’s just been blowing through guys,” said the Muay Thai specialist. “It’s hard not to be impressed with what he shows you. He pulls off things you don’t see too many guys do.” Jones comes in pretty much undefeated in the UFC, after getting his first loss via disqualification at the TUF 10 Finale. Dominating the fight, Jones was literally destroying Matt Hamill and was in a very dominant position to finish the fight in the very first round. While tearing up The Hammer’s face, with vicious GNP from the mount, Jones was called for throwing illegal (downward) elbows. And just like that, Bones was handed his first career-defeat and Hamill was bailed out before really getting hurt. “I've heard so many times that when you lose, you come back a better, stronger person,” Jones said after the fight. “Everything happens for a reason.” Jones has managed to stay humble and focused on the task at hand during his first 4 UFC fights. So, don’t expect any of that to change now says Bones. “Fans or the media may think, ‘Oh, this is an easy fight’ or ‘That is an easy fight,’ but if you fight for a living, you know there’s no such thing as an easy fight,” said the 22-year-old from Rochester, NY. “So I just don’t pay attention to it. I know how hard I train and I know how much I push myself. “I’ve never taken anyone lightly and I will never be affected by (the hype). Even before I started in the UFC, a lot of people were hyping me. I was in a small circuit in the Northeast and a lot of people were talking about me. It’s nice, but to tell you the truth, I’m so obsessed with getting better that I hardly notice it.” Bet on Brandon Vera vs Jon Jones UFC LIVE Betting Odds at online sportsbook BetUS.com and receive up to 145% in Cash Bonuses and start winning today! |

Junior Dos Santos vs Gabriel Gonzaga UFC Betting Odds: With a perfect 4-0 record in the UFC, (10-1-0) Junior “Cigano” Dos Santos [-280 ML] is one victory away from becoming a legitimate championship contender in the stacked UFC heavyweight division. With a vicious knockout over Fabricio Werdum in his UFC debut, to his latest destruction of Gilbert Yvel at UFC 108, this hard-hitting Brazilian has put himself right in the thick of things in the most competitive organization in the world. 
“I’m super excited for the fight,” Dos Santos said this week. “I can’t wait for Sunday to come. I feel great in the altitude.” Two fights ago, sports betting odds underdog (11-4-0) Gabriel “Napao” Gonzaga [+230 ML] was in the very same position, before Shane Carwin knocked him unconscious in the first round. There’s no question that both of these guys have the outmost respect for one another, as they make their move towards a title shot. “Gonzaga is a great fighter, he is powerful and dangerous, has very good Muay Thai and excellent Jiu Jitsu,” Cigano added. “I have to be very careful in this fight, but I like to surprise my opponents, and I am training to surprise him in this fight.” But coming in as the sports betting odds underdog, Gonzaga isn’t concerning himself with the experts’ predictions for this fight. Instead, Napao believes it’s all about the weapons a fighter has under his belt. “I don’t care (about the odds),” Gonzaga said. “This is a sport where anyone can get beat. I think I have better skills to finish the fight. MMA is not just boxing. It includes other things: Muay Thai, Jiu-Jitsu and wrestling.” Bet on Junior Dos Santos vs Gabriel Gonzaga UFC Betting Odds at internet sportsbook SBG Global and receive up to 295% in Cash Bonuses and start winning today! |

Nevertheless, Schaub believes that he can get his fight from being an unaired prelim, to making it to the main broadcast. “All I've got to do is do my job, and I'll make TV,” Schaub said. “I'll be on TV.” This UFC Live Odds event gets underway tonight at 9 PM ET (7 PM MT) from the 1STBANK Center in Broomfield, Colorado.

Manny Pacquiao vs Joshua Clottey Fight Predictions: As (50-3-2, 38 KOs) Manny Pacquiao [-750 ML] makes hi final preparations for tonight’s welterweight championship fight against sports betting odds underdog (35-3-1, 20 KOs) Joshua Clottey [+475 ML], many people already consider Pac-Man to be the best ever in numerous categories. Becoming the first man ever to win seven different championship titles in seven different weight classes, it’s hard to believe the legacy of the “Fighting Pride of the Philippines” is still growing. The truth is many experts and historians already consider Pacquiao to be among other things, the best Asian fighter ever, as well as the most dominant southpaw in the history of boxing. But tonight, head trainer Freddie Roach believes that his man will do something that hasn’t been done before: knock out iron-chinned, Joshua Clottey.
“I really believe Manny will find a way,” Roach said. But how realistic are Manny Pacquiao’s chances to put Joshua Clottey to sleep tonight at Cowboys Stadium? Here’s what the Manny Pacquiao vs Joshua Clottey Fight Predictions indicate will be the final result in this fight, with its respective odds: Fight Outcome Betting Odds: Manny Pacquiao by KO, TKO or Disqualification [-160 ML] Manny Pacquiao by Decision or Technical Decision [+140 ML] Joshua Clottey by KO, TKO or Disqualification [+750 ML] Joshua Clottey by Decision or Technical Decision [+1000 ML] Draw or Technical Draw [+3000 ML] So you see, boxing Betting Odds makers and experts at BETUS.com do in fact believe that the most possible ending to tonight’s fight will be by knockout, technical-knockout or a disqualification in favor of Manny Pacquiao. When asked about this, the Filipino took the high road and gave the politically correct answer. “I can’t promise a knockout, but I want to put on a good show for the people who support me all the time,” he said. But the biggest question doubters have about that specific scenario is: does Pac-Man have enough power in his hands to knockout a bigger welterweight like Clottey? “He was having trouble making 130 and after the Marquez fight (on March 15, 2008), he wanted to go to lightweight (and its 135-pound limit,” said the legendary Bon Arum. “But he’s really a 140-pounder now. He fought Hatton at 138. His most comfortable weight now is 140, but if there were some kind of a huge fight at 135, he could make that if he had to. “That’s what makes what he’s doing all the more remarkable, because you have this little guy just beating the (expletive) out of guys who are physically a lot bigger than he is.” Here are some other interesting bets for this great fight! Take advantage of these great offers from BETUS.com: Points Handicap: Manny Pacquiao -22½ Pts [-120 ML] Joshua Clottey +22½ Pts [-120 ML] Points Handicap: Manny Pacquiao -13½ Pts [-250 ML] Joshua Clottey +13½ Pts [+175 ML] Points Handicap: Manny Pacquiao -26½ Pts [-105 ML] Joshua Clottey +26½ Pts [-135 ML] Point Deduction in the Fight: Either fighter has a Pt deducted [+425 ML] No penalty Pt taken in the fight [-800 ML] Knocked Down Prop: Either fighter Knocked down or out [-450 ML] No Knockdowns or Knockouts [+275 ML] Bet on Manny Pacquiao vs Joshua Clottey Fight Predictions at online sportsbook BetUS.com and receive up to 145% in Cash Bonuses and start winning today! |
