MMA fans seem divided on Saturday’s UFC 153 fight card. Some see the main event of Anderson Silva versus Stephan Bonnar as a huge mismatch. The oddsmakers seem to agree with those fans, listing Silva as a 93 percent favorite to win.

Others, and I include myself in this group, will tell you that you should pony up the scratch to watch this event as you never know how many more chances you will get to see Silva work his magic inside the Octagon.

While the card is anchored by the bout between Silva and Bonnar, there are some other intriguing matchups that fans should care about. Light heavyweight prospect Glover Teixeira will look to extend his 16-fight winning streak when he faces Fabio Maldonado. Jon Fitch will look to stop surging young welterweight Erick Silva. Phil Davis faces Wagner Prado, while Demain Maia and Rick Story look to throw their names in the mix in the welterweight division.

In all the, card will feature 12 bouts with six being shown on pay per view, four on FX and two streaming on the UFC’s Facebook page.

While the fighters will compete on Saturday, they’ll step on the scale on Friday at 3 p.m. ET.
