Spike and the UFC have put together an intriguing card with title shots at stake and several intriguing prospects of all ages. Gray Maynard is fighting to keep his title hopes alive. A big win from Maynard over Nate Diaz, makes him the logical choice to face UFC lightweight champ B.J. Penn at UFC 112 in Abu Dhabi.
Is Aaron Simpson a legit prospect at 35 years old? He'll face prankster Tom Lawlor. Chris Leben may be on his last legs with the UFC. "The Crippler" has lost two straight and faces Jay Silva (pictured) on the non-televised undercard. Silva just started fighting professionally in early 2008. Season 8 "Ultimate Fighter" winner Efrain Escudero has a tough challenge in Evan Dunham. Jesse Lennox and Rick Story is a strong candidate for fight of the night. We also get to see what Kyle Bradley brings against Rafael Dos Anjos after mandhandling TUF 8 runner-up Philipe Nover at UFC 98. Amir Sadollah faces a stiff test in veteran Brad Blackburn, which should be a standup war and lightweight prospect Thiago Tavares after 11 months off because of injury.
Yahoo! Sports is live cageside with fight-by-fight updates beginning at 6:30 p.m. ET. If you're looking for some underdogs with value. Silva has a shot but the price isn't worth it at plus-115. Dunham (+220), Blackburn (+150), Lennox (+180) and Bradley (+250) all worth a play.
UFN 20 odds (Courtesy Venetian Resort Hotel Casino):
Nate Diaz (+280) v. Gray Maynard (-360) - Lightweight
Evan Dunham (+220) v. Efrain Escudero (-300) - Lightweight
Tom Lawlor (+200) v. Aaron Simpson (-250) - Middleweight
Brad Blackburn (+150) v. Amir Sadollah (-180) - Welterweight
