The Resurrection Fighting Alliance is set to take off on January 15th when Benjamin Smith (15-3) faces off against Bojan Velickovic (12-3) in what is expected to be a close contest for the organization’s currently vacant welterweight title spot.

The venue has been announced as 1st Bank Center in Broomfield, Colorado. The fight is scheduled for the 15th of January and it will be aired on AXS TV.

The RFA president Ed Soares seemed content to kick things off in Colorado, as he said that the headline act features two of the most highly accomplished 170 pound fighters in the history of the RFA and that it was a great way to begin their 2016 campaign.

Benjamin Smith seems to be the favorite to reclaim the title that he once held. Smith was welterweight champion until he lost the spot to Gilbert Smith who then moved to Bellator and hence left the welterweight champion spot up for grabs. Smith is now 35 years old and suggested in a press conference that this may be his last chance to earn a contract with the Ultimate Fighting Championship before he hangs up his gloves.

Before being beaten by Gilbert Smith via submission, Benjamin Smith was on fire as he had racked up an impressive six consecutive victories including a technical knockout against Indalecio Tat Romero that won him the title.

His opponent is 27 year old Bojan Velickovic from Serbia. Velickovic now lives in Colorado and has won his past three fights prior to which he also was beaten by Gilbert Smith.

The two fighters are very evenly matched on paper and despite the 8 year age difference, it is set to be a very closely competed fight indeed and we can only wait and watch to see what unravels.

Michael Bisping Vs. Anderson Silva

Bisping Vs Silva is a fight that is set to feature on UFC Fight Night 83 which is scheduled to take place on February 27th, 2016 at the O2 Arena in England. It will be only the fifth UFC fight to occur in the 02 Arena and the 8th in England overall. The build-up leading […]

Bisping Vs Silva is a fight that is set to feature on UFC Fight Night 83 which is scheduled to take place on February 27th, 2016 at the O2 Arena in England. It will be only the fifth UFC fight to occur in the 02 Arena and the 8th in England overall.

The build-up leading to this much anticipated fight has gotten rather hostile as Michael Bisping isn’t allowing anyone to forget that Silva didn’t just fail one drug test, or even two, but a shocking three! Silva who is also known as “The Spider” returned a positive result for anabolic steroid usage and anti-anxiety pills when he was tested after his victory against Nick Diaz. When it transpired that Silva was on performance enhancing steroids, the result was overturned to a no contest and The Spider was slapped with a staggering $380,000 fine. He was also barred from the UFC for one whole year.

All eyes are going to be on “The Spider”, who is also the former middleweight champ, as he makes a return after his one year suspension and looks to put things straight with a victory against Bisping. Bisping has appealed that Silva should be rigorously drug tested prior to the fight, especially given his history with drug abuse. Not many would disagree.

Bisping said in an interview that all fighters were chasing a dream and they should all get to compete in a level playing field. He said victories should come with hard work and determination and not performance enhancing drugs.

Bisping who swore to have never touched a performance enhancing drug his whole life has a good fighting track record in general and has only lost to the likes of Cheal Sonnen, Vitor Belfort and Dan Henderson, all of whom have had a reputation for using performance enhancing drugs.

Current UFC Fight Night 75 Betting Odds – Coming to us from that other side of the Pacific, from Saitama, Japan, is UFC Night Night. At the top of the Fox Sports 1 main card is Josh Barnett vs. Roy “Big Country” Nelson. This heavyweight fight is going to be a brawl. Both of these fighters despertly need this victory to have any dream of becoming champion in the somewhat near future. Barnett is going to try and fluster Nelson with his impressive takedown ability and when you combine that with top-notch submission skills, its a lethal combination. The one drawback for that plan is Roy Nelson has seen it all. This veteran has been around-the-block a few times and is ready for any skill-set the UFC puts in front of him. Right now according to the guys in Las Vegas, Josh Barnett is the slight favorite. Barnett is hovering around -210 while Nelson is happily the underdog near +200. Both of these fighters have proven themselves but neither accepts losing at any point in their career. You don’t want to miss UFC Fight Night 75 on Saturday, September 26th.

Current UFC Fight Night 74 Betting Odds – LIVE from Saskatoon, SK, Canada, UFC Fight Night 74 bring us Max Holloway vs. Charles Oliveira. Both fighters are going into this fight on impressive win-streaks and deserve to be on the top of this card. Oliveira is counting on his Jiu-Jitsu rather than his Muay Thai because he believes that Holloways’s defense won’t be able to handle the pressure. Holloway has other plans. Holloway has significantly heavier hands and some would say his striking should be ale to carry him through this fight. This fight is going to come down to whether Oliveira is able to take Holloway to the ground or not, and with 5-rounds to do so, I like his odds. Las Vegas is heavily taking the side of Holloway at -215 making Oliveira the underdog at +185. You do not want to miss this fight on Saturday, August 23rd at 9PM EST/ 6PM PST.

Current UFC Fight Night 73 Betting Odds – LIVE Saturday, August 8th, from Nashville, Tennessee, UFC Fight Night 73 brings us Glover Teixeira vs. Ovince Saint Preux. These two fighters come to the cage with entirely different mindsets. On one hand you have Ovince Saint Preux(OSP) looking to make waves and contend for the light heavyweight championship. OSP has KO’ed his last two opponents and needs another to justify a title shot. Teixeira is entering the octagon on his first two match losing-streak of his career. Now to be fair, one of those loses was to Jon Jones but still, Teixeira needs to enter the octagon with a must-win attitude. Teixeira isn’t getting any younger and his shot at becoming the champion is fading. As of now Las Vegas is seeing this fight as almost a coin-flip. The books have Teixeira marginally set as the favorite at -140, while OSP is sitting at +110. With two of the best strikers in the UFC going head-to-head for a possible shot to contend for the Light-Heavyweight Championship, we’re in store for one of the best fights of the summer.

Current UFC 190 Betting Odds – UFC 190 comes to us LIVE from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil! The main event features the most feared woman in all of sports Ronda Rousey, and she will square up against the seventh ranked contender in her weight class, Bethe Correia.

The second reason is that, this fight quickly became personal to Rousey. Not only did Correia trash talk Rousey, she blew through two of Rousey’s personal friends in order to get here. Some are saying that beyond “Cyborg” this is one of the ladies with a legitimate chance, but Las Vegas highly disagrees.
