This weekend, on Saturday June 7th UFC 85 Bedlam will take place. It will take place in the O2 Arena in London, England and there are many interesting fights on the scorecard. The most exciting and main event of the evening will be between Matt Hughes and Thiago Alves. Each fighter is going to be hungry coming into this match and I expect a very good tilt between the two experienced and talented fighters. Currently Oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com have Matt Hughes at a -200 UFC 85 odds favorite heading into Saturday’s MMA fight.
Matt Hughes enters this fight with a MMA record of 42-6. He is recently coming off of a tough submission loss to one of the greatest fighters out there, in George St-Pierre. Hughes is considered to be one of the best welterweight fighters of all time, but the sports evolution is producing better and stronger fighters each and everyday. He is 34 years old and may only have a few more years left before it will be to late for him to get another chance to get his title back. He comes into this fight poised and ready to win. Make sure you get your UFC 85 Bedlam picks in at SportsBook.com Thiago Alves is not a fighter that should be underestimated. He holds an impressive MMA record of 14-3 and is on a five fight winning streak. In his last 2 fights he defeated tough oppenents in Chirs Lytle and Karo Parisyan. He is very young at 24 years old and has a very bright future in the UFC. He shows great heart and passion. Ever since he lost back in 2005, he has gone 8-1, with 7 stoppage victories. A win here would put him in line for a title shot against St-Pierre so this will be a very important fight for Avles.
