Affliction Banned Preview: Renato "Babalu" Sobral vs. Mike Whitehead

Renato "Babalu" Sobral (29-7) vs. Mike Whitehead (21-5) -240, +190
Oh Renato ‘Babalu’ Sorbal, the last time I saw you, you were trying to kill someone in the Octagon. The UFC cut you for your thugery and now you get to fight Xtreme Couture fighter, Mike Whitehead.
Sorbal’s UFC pedigree is well known and he is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighter (obviously he's Brazilian). Mike Whitehead is also a submission fighter winning eleven of his fights via submission. Mike was recently involved in the failing IFL but before that he did fight Keith Jardine in the UFC and lost. I have to believe that Babalu, a fighter who fought Chuck Liddell for the UFC light heavyweight belt, is a better fighter than Keith Jardine. Then again Jardine beat Liddell, so perhaps this fight is as close as the odds say.
Vegas has the odds at -240 for Sorbal and +190 for Whitehead.
Pick: Renato ‘Babalu’ Sorbal via death choke and kick ass tatoos.
