The UFC 100 odds are set up and a lot of people are jacked up for this event. UFC boss Dana White will be looking to make a big birthday bash for the UFC, which will be 100 events old very shortly.



They?ve grown quite a bit since the first UFC fight card. MMA is now a huge worldwide sport, there are several spin-offs of MMA and now there are UFC events worldwide from Germany, to England, to North America.



UFC 100 is a card full of main events, include all sorts of huge events, probably a lot of fights that could headline their own events. Dan Henderson and Michael Bisping will be enticing, as will George St. Pierre and Thiago Alves should be a fun fight.



Let?s take a look at the main event matchup between Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir, which should be a heavyweight classic.



Frank Mir vs Brock Lesnar


Since the New York Giants and New England Patriots Super Bowl odds, there hasn?t been as much conjecture about two titans stepping into one battle.



This has been a highly anticipated rematch as a lot of people are hungry to see what will happen a second time around between these two fighters.



In the first bout, Lesnar was dominating the entire fight both in theory and on the scorecards when Mir, a submission guru, caught a hold of Lesnar?s foot and forced him to tap out.



A number of things have changed from that first battle, the first and most important being the fact that Lesnar has gained experience.



When he fought Mir the first time, that was Lesnar?s second MMA bout ever. While he has an extensive background in wrestling, it?s pretty clear that he was raw in the first fight, hence the rookie mistake leaving his leg out for Mir.



This time around, Lesnar has more experience and he has grown as a fighter. He has been training in MMA for a couple of years now and he?s had a couple more fights.



His ground defense has improved, as has his lethal attack standing up. Without a doubt, Lesnar is the pick for sports predictions on this card. He has several edges of Mir and should be focused enough to get revenge.
