This is the headline fight for UFC 101 and with good reason. Both BJ Penn and Kenny Florian are great fighters and both are determined to repair their reputations after being comprehensively undone in previous fights (Penn against St-Pierre and Florian against Sherk).

BJ PENN v KENNY FLORIAN BETTING TIPS AND PREVIEW

A number of astute and some not-so-astute cappers are suggesting an upset here with the underdog Florian triumphing.

Florian is at a best price +200 with BetEd, so if you’re going to back Florian, this is the place to do it.

Preview : The Case For A Florian Victory

Florian is a smooth, smooth fighter who is well able to string together moves and submission attempts. While boxing isn’t his main strength, he does have the capacity to throw a tidy punch which, when combined with impressive high kicks, should be able to keep Penn’s ju-jitsu moves at bay.

Having won 9 out of 10 fights, Florian is a top class proponent of MMA and, so the argument goes, will out think and out fight Penn.

UFC 101 Preview : The Case For BJ Penn

The thing is that sportsbooks are rarely wrong and they have Penn as favorite. You’ll find him at -230 with BetUS for this one.

And, personally, I think they’re right. Penn is just such a fast and unpredictable fighter that no matter what Florian throws at him, he has something just that bit better to retaliate with.

Penn is the more clever fighter and should keep his belt.
