The quarterback rotations for the NFL picks preseason betting contest between the Titans and Bills is forthcoming in the free NFL spread picks section right about the time the UFC 101 results come pouring in. The top NFL betting expert GI Joe Duffy is compiling them now.
Yes the Red Sox-Yankees is a great appetizer for the fights, but now it’s time to take a look at the betting preview of Florian-Penn.
Early our great friends at Bodog, the Micheal Jackson of sportsbooks, previewed the sensational MMA UFC 101 undercard.
Kenny Florian has been waiting a long time for a second shot at the lightweight title.
On Saturday at the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia, only champion B.J. Penn stands in his way.
Florian looked impressive in his most recent wins over Joe Stevenson and Roger Huerta, neither of whom had answers for his well-rounded game. But Penn, at his best, is an artist in the cage. And he will have plenty of motivation, looking to put the GSP loss behind him and proving that he is still relevant.
Penn is nicknamed The Prodigy for the speed in which he earned his jiu-jitsu black belt and won the Brazilian jiu-jitsu world championship.
Penn is also the favorite heading into this match at -280 to win. Florian is priced at +220 to pull off the upset.
Florian is one of the best lightweights in the fight game today and will be a load for Penn on Saturday
