UFC Main Events are noted for their plethora of fighting talent and showcasing the largest names in MMA, however the UFC 122 Main Event to be presented in Oberhausen Germany on November 13th is a well known exclusion.
Japanese MMA competitor Yushin Okami isn’t exactly a celebrity in most of the world, but he’s one match away from a shot at the middleweight title. If he can in some manner get past challenger Nate Marquardt in the UFC 122 lines action, he will be next in line to face Anderson Silva, the top MMA competitor on earth.
MMA supporters can hope that ‘UFC Europe’ is more effective than NFL Europe or some other failed American sporting endeavor put on in Europe as the UFC 122 prospects action returns to the old continent for the 2nd time in less than 30 days.
Come hell or high water the UFC 122 gambling action will happen on November 13th, 2010 at the Konig Pilsner Arena in Oberhausen Germany. Even with opposition to the sport from the German media and the government, the UFC is established to carry on to push their overseas profile in MMA fighting until they’re either accepted or forbidden forever.
In the past few years the UFC has accomplished a incredible job of growing its world wide appeal by hosting competitions in foreign nations (and much further abroad than just Canada) and applied a little spice to the process. This won’t be the 1st time that a UFC Main Event has been held in England, however the UFC 120 odds contest will be the 1st time that Brits have owned the roster. This will actually be the 9th event hosted in England, and the 1st since UFC 105. It’s going to coincide with another British UFC event, the 1st ever UK UFC Fan Expo.
In the run up to the UFC 119 betting event the hype machine has been all about the big men. With the light heavyweight battle between Antonnio Rogerio Noguiera versus Ryan Bader and the heavyweight competition between Frank Mir and Mirko Filipovic sharing top billing on the Main Card, a lot of folks will be overlooking the other excellent competitions of the night.
As great as the UFC Main Events are, the only bad point about them is the fact that fans have to wait a month between these MMA events and the UFC 117 betting event can’t arrive quickly enough for most fighting fans.
The month of August begins with Jon Jones preferred at the sports books against Vladimir Matyushenko in the highlight matchup of an intriguing UFC competition that will be televised on Versus.
