There’s a heavyweight fight rumored for this summer, and it is a big one. Based on MMAjunkie.com, former Strikeforce heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem is predicted to return to the cage at UFC 164, which takes place August 31 at Bradley Center in Milwaukee, WI. And his rumored competition is none other than heavyweight banger Travis Browne, although this fight is still far from official. If it does materialize, however, expect this to be the co-main event for UFC 164 because it’s unquestionably one of the biggest fights of this summertime. Overeem, who was shockingly knocked out by Antonio”Bigfoot” Silva at UFC 156, was set to return to actions against Junior dos Santos at UFC 160 but had to pull out due to injuries, but healthy, he’ll seem to get back into title contention by taking out the climbing Browne, that also has a recent reduction to Silva. This is a fairly even matchup but I do favor Browne to win the battle, and I believe he could win it . However, Overeem has all the hype and people support behind him , although he lost to”Bigfoot,” I expect him to open as the favorite in this struggle, perhaps from the -200 range, together with the comeback on Browne becoming +150. And if that is true, then I’ll definitely be recommending a play on Browne, who is coming from a KO win over veteran Gabriel Gonzaga. Another bet to target for this fight will be that it doesn’t go to decision, as either man has the capacity to knock one another out, so definitely consider creating a play on that prop if it’s under -300 come fight night. Lauzon vs. Johnson Booked For UFC on FOX Sports 1 The UFC today booked a lightweight bout between Massachusetts native Joe Lauzon and Michael Johnson for the upcoming UFC on FOX Sports 1 1 card, which takes place August 17 at Boston, MA. The fight will probably be a preliminary card bout. This is an excellent battle between 2 of the exciting fighters in the UFC lightweight branch so kudos to UFC matchmaker Joe Silva for reserving it. For Lauzon, it is a chance to redeem himself after losing to Jim Miller at a war in UFC 155, while Johnson really needs to bounce back major time after suffering back-to-back defeats to Myles Jury and Reza Madadi. This is a competitive struggle if it remains standing but when it hits the floor then Lauzon, who’s a BJJ ace, will have a massive edge over Johnson, who has quite a inadequate ground game. As such, I anticipate Lauzon to start at about -230 or with the launching comeback on Johnson being around +170, but things may easily change if the public decides they prefer Johnson to triumph. As for me, I think that this is a really great matchup for Lauzon therefore I would predict him to win and I certainly would be targeting him for a wager this summer, in addition to targeting the Lauzon via submission prop.
