Lesnar vs. Carwin
This is one of the most anticipated fights in UFC history. Brock Lesnar is coming back from his near death battle with illness and is ready to defend his heavyweight title. Lesnar comes into the fight at 4-1 while Carwin boasts a perfect 12-0 record. Not only that, but Carwin has been just manhandling his opponents in dominating fashion. With Lesnar being the favorite at -150 we can’t help but think he’s going to win this fight. Carwin has some weapons but might not have enough to hang with Lesnar’s “bad boy” style. Take Lesnar -150.

Bookmaker: Lesnar -150, Carwin +120
BetUS: Lesnar -145, Carwin +115

Yoshihiro Akiyama vs. Chris Leben
The Akiyama vs. Leben fight is another much anticipated fight of UFC 116. If you follow UFC fights at all you know that Chris Leben is a good fighter. He comes into this fight as a pretty big underdog listed at +185. Akiyama has not been beat since 2005 but hasn’t faced many opponents of Leben’s quality. We are picking the upset here and see lots of value in Leben +185 bet. Get over to BetUS today and make this bet!

Bookmaker: Akiyama -205, Leben +165
