Nate Marquardt and Yushin Okami will take the spotlight of the Octagon on Saturday November 13th in Oberhausen Germany as the featured fighters in the UFC 122 odds action. These two men have watched a lot of MMA action and have battled quite a few UFC events.



But next Saturday’s matchup at the UFC 122 gambling event may very well be the most essential fighting competition of either man’s career. That these 2 fighters are featured in the headline bout of a UFC Main Event is a little bit of a good shock for these two fighters who have otherwise been neglected by plenty of people in the sport.

With a career record of 30-9-2 Marquardt continues to be a testimony to resilience. Not many fighters reach the 40 bout level in their career and the reality that the Wyoming native, Marquardt, has achieved that fighting milestone by the age of 31 says a lot about his robustness and resilience. His career record of 30-9-2 is much better than most fighters but it is still not rather good enough to distinguish himself from the remainder of the weight class and gain “elite” standing in the UFC.

His UFC 122 odds opponent, Yushin Okami, is yet another experienced vet of MMA action and at 29 years of age has thirty career MMA competitions under his belt. His record of 25-5 is impressive but he does not have any huge victories over an proved fighter in the UFC. In fact, the largest name he’s battled since signing with the UFC is probably Chael Sonnen, who defeated Okami rather handily and won by unanimous decision in October of a year ago.

The only savior of this bout is the possibility that the champ will go onto compete with Anderson Silva for the championship. However, both fighters have had their chance at Silva in previous years, and both failed to wow. Marquardt got his opportunity in July 2007 at UFC 73. He lost the tournament that night by technical knockout because of strikes. Okami was previously slated to take on Anderson Silva throughout UFC 90 but was pressured to withdraw because of a broken hand. Either of these fighters taking on such a icon at this point is going to be anticlimactic, and not only considering Silva is going to wipe the mat with them. Even if one of them gets the possibility, and regardless if they manage to win the bout vs Silva, it will feel as if the belt was thieved from him by someone who tripped into honor.

Neither one of these fighters is going into the UFC Hall of Fame and so for them to have a shot at the championship at this point in their career and headlining the UFC 122 odds action is probably more than either would have imagined achievable.

With regards to matching up, Marquardt has confronted the most difficult contest in his career and he has victories over superior foes. Okami has better his striking and other facets of this combat, however Marquardt has the advantage in robustness and endurance.

Anticipate this bout to go the distance and also for Marquardt to win in this UFC 122 gambling matchup.
