Kenny Florian (9-3, 7-2 UFC) vs. Roger Huerta (20-1-1, 6-0 UFC)
Continuing with Roger Huerta day comes our preview of this lightweight contender match.
The wiry veteran versus the good-looking kid who just happens to be undefeated in the UFC. And there is also a salary dispute with that handsome kid and management.
This fight should be exciting. Huerta hasn't been in a fight that was boring and Flroian likes to talk up his "I finish fights" mantra. There is a lot on the line for both fighters. If Huerta wins he can ask for more money while sticking his tongue out at Dana White. If Florian wins then Dana White gets to stick his tongue out at Huerta.
The winner will see themselves on the shortlist to fight for the title. That may spawn hesitation or insane action. Not really sure which, but I am hoping for the insane action.
Razor thins odds right now with Huerta at +115 and Florian at -145. That is essentially a toss up. In honor of Harvey Dent and America's number one grossing film this year I will flip a coin. Heads is Huerta, tails is K-Flo. Tails! So Kenny Florian will win.
