("Whaddya mean we got four more rounds? I thought this fight was supposed to be a boring wrestlefest.")

Well, UFC 125 is in the books and to say fans got a few surprises from the card that many had written off as being an inevitable snoozefest would be an understatement.

The main event lightweight championship bout between champ Frankie Edgar and apt challenger Gray Maynard, which ended in a hotly debated split draw, delivered the goods earning well-deserved Fight of the Night honors.

According to UFC president Dana White, because the fight, which he admitted could have been stopped in the opening frame, was so close and because so many fans want to see the rubber match, he reversed the announcement made by UFC vice president Craig Borsari at the post-fight press conference that Anthony Pettis is next in line for a shot at Edgar’s crown and says he will instead be slotting in Edgar-Maynard III for some time in early 2011.

LAS VEGAS — Questions? He’s heard them all. Doubts? They come by the truckload.

Frankie Edgar is too small, they say.

The voices dimmed a bit when he beat Sean Sherk. Some others went away when he beat BJ Penn twice. But Gray Maynard was the final hurdle. Beat a guy who manhandled you the first time, they said, and maybe we’ll believe.

Edgar didn’t beat Maynard, but in some senses, what he did at UFC 125 was just as impressive. Edgar survived a first-round thrashing that would have finished most fighters, and fought back from a two-point deficit to force a draw, allowing him to retain his UFC lightweight belt.

And with that, the final doubters and questioners should be silenced.

Let’s start 2011 off on the right foot…
If you’re looking to get your 2011 MMA betting off to the right start, here are our best values on UFC 125 betting lines.

:: Frankie Edgar is the champ, but he’s the underdog. If you find it hard betting against the champ, grab Edgar at +120 at Bookmaker here. If you find it harder to bet against the only guy who has beaten him, the take Gray Maynard at -130 at Bodog here.

:: We’re kinda liking “the new” Chris Leben and expect him to continue his upward career trend. Public money has been pretty heavy on Brian Stann though, and Leben has moved from -180 to -160 at BetUS here. We suggest taking the -160 now before it moves up again.

:: While one of our general rules in betting MMA is to NEVER bet against Anderson Silva or GSP, another one is not to ever take the side against Clay Guida, because, well, he’s Clay Fucking Guida. So take the -150 with Guida here.

:: For prop bets, Bodog has a few fliers we’d take for the hell of it on the title fight. First put $100 on “Gray Maynard vs Frankie Edgar won’t complete 1 full round” at +750 here. Second, drop another $100 on “Gray Maynard vs Frankie Edgar won’t complete 4 full rounds” at +260 here.

Good luck in 2011…
