UFC betting excitement continues with UFC 104 and you don’t have to pay to see two of the bouts as Spike TV will show two of the preliminary fights next Saturday.
Those that bet on UFC at the sportsbook will be able to watch Ryan “Darth” Bader vs. Eric Schafer on Spike TV in addition to Antoni Hardonk vs. Pat Barry. Anytime fights are on TV they draw extra attention at the sportsbook.
UFC betting on UFC 104 has a lot of good fights and the Spike TV bouts could be interesting as well. It was thought that Spike might show Yushin Okami vs. Chael Sonnen but that doesn’t seem likely now. There are six sports betting bouts on the preliminary UFC betting card for UFC 104 and Spike TV has chosen these two for TV. The other bouts on the preliminary UFC card are the previous mentioned Okami vs. Sonnen bout, Jorge Rivera vs. Rob Kimmons, Kyle Kingsbury vs. Razak Al-Hassan and Stefan Struve vs. Chase Gormley.
UFC 104 features Mauricio “Shogun” Rua vs. current UFC Light Heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida. The title will be on the line for this feature UFC bout. UFC 104 will be held on October 24th from Los Angeles and include a total of 11 fights for those that bet on UFC.
The main card features Machida vs. Rua in UFC betting but other bouts should be entertaining as well for those that bet on UFC at the sportsbook. On the UFC card is a heavyweight bout between Cain Velasquez and Ben Rothwell. There are two lightweight bouts as Gleison Tibau takes on Josh Neer while Joe Stevenson faces Spencer Fisher. The welterweight bout on the feature portion of the UFC card has Anthony Johnson facing Yoshiyuki Yoshida. Features bouts oftentimes get the bulk of the UFC action but that might not be the case with UFC 104 since there are two televised fights on Spike and a number of other interesting UFC fights.
UFC will be exciting on UFC 104. There are some great bouts on the card and Spike TV will be showing two of them for free. The remaining sports betting bouts are available on Pay-Per-View as always and there is no question that many who bet on UFC will want to get that package as well.
