UFC 85 Odds

Originally the main event was supposed to be Chuck Liddell Vs Mauricio Rua until Rua suffered a knee injury that forced Rashad Evans into a replacement role. Evans was in a great position to get a shot at the
former champion and really step up to the elite level of competition in the Light Heavyweight division. until Chuck Liddell injured a hamstring that will keep him off the fight scene for a few months at least.

James Irving, fresh off his recent KO victory over Houston Alexander stepped up to take Liddell’s place, only to get hurt him self and then get replaced by Matt Hughes Vs. Thiago Alves.

UFC 85 also, features that heavyweight showdown between Fabricio Werdum and Brandon Vera, as well as a dynamite welterweight match up between Mike Swick and Marcus Davis.

Mike “Quick” Swick (11-2) will take on Marcus “The Irish Handgrenade” Davis (14-3) at UFC 85 on June 7 from the O2 Arena in London, England.

Also confirmed for the UFC’s third London card in six years is a crucial heavyweight bout between feared Brazilian submission specialist Fabricio Werdum and heavy-handed Brandon “The Truth” Vera.

Werdum 10-3-1 - who will be fighting in England for the third time in 14 months, is coming off a stunning victory over former UFC Heavyweight Title challenger Gabriel Gonzaga in Newcastle in January.

Meanwhile, Vera, 8-1, will be looking to regain some of the breakneck upward momentum he lost last October when a severely broken thumb conspired with Tim Sylvia to snap “The Truth’s” unbeaten record. The hard hitting 30-year-old had stopped all four previous UFC opponents
including former champ Frank Mir and has vowed to return to the kind of form which made many experts dub him a future UFC champion.

Look for UFC 85 to be marketed heavily with a 10 p.m. ET PPV start time, which will be on tape delay, and the LIVE broadcast to be available earlier on Saturday afternoon.

That’s how the last few UFC shows abroad have worked, anyway.
