For MMA gambling purists there isn’t anything more unsettling than the upcoming UFC 116 gambling Main Event at the online sportsbook featuring former WWE champion –and current UFC gambling champion- Brock Lesnar.
The fact is that Lesnar comes from a background of pretend fighting in the WWE, and that’s distasteful for plenty of MMA gambling fans to digest. A lot of sports gambling fans see Lesnar as a force to delegitimize the UFC gambling contest after plenty of superb competitors have worked so hard to make the UFC the king of MMA gambling.
But beyond the doubts of legitimacy of the sport, plenty of MMA fighting fans basically want to know whether this guy is the real deal or not. All things considered Lesnar has had a quite unorthodox career in the UFC gambling so far. He only has five career UFC gambling competitions under his belt (the UFC 116 probabilities contest will be his sixth) and yet he is already wearing the UFC gambling heavy weight belt.
Compared to former superb winners in the heavyweight division some MMA gambling fans see Lesnar’s title as reward for his celebrity as much as it is for his ability as a fighter. When Lesnar climbs into the Octagon for his UFC 116 gambling event against Shane Carwin, these skeptics will see for themselves soon enough. Carwin is a bit more experienced and no one doubts his skills as a mma fighter with his perfect 12-0 UFC gambling track record to back him up.
Alternatively, Lesnar doesn’t have nearly as impressive a UFC gambling track record having lost 1 of these five previous matches. But he’s also defeated some major UFC gambling names like Randy Couture and Frank Mir. Lesnar’s largest test yet and a superb opportunity for him to prove himself to all the MMA gambling fans will be this UFC 116 gambling event.
The UFC 116 gambling competition will also be a major litmus test for the UFC on the whole. This MMA organization has come under scrutiny of late for pursuing major name flops in order to increase rating, namely Kimbo Slice. Plenty of MMA gambling fans view Lesnar as basically another Slice and so the UFC 116 gambling event will be the perfect moment for Lesnar to prove these critics right or shut them up permanently.
Lesnar won his 1st UFC competition in June 2007. He signed up with the UFC in October 2007. He made his debut in UFC 81 against the UFC Heavyweight Champion Frank Mir. Lesnar was deducted a point for hitting Mir on the back of the head after securing an early takedown. Mir was able to force Lesnar into a submission at 1:30 of the 1st round. He’s had some dubious bouts since then, though no further losses.
This competition was at first intended to happen last year during UFC 106. Nonetheless Lesnar was withdrawn from the competition after having been sick for weeks previous to it. He stated at that time that he had never been so unwell in his life and it would take him a while to recover. July 3rd’s UFC 116 is when that competition was rescheduled for.
