He returned to the light heavyweight division last September with a TKO win over Matt Hamill. Franklin\u2019s last two losses both came against Anderson Silva.<\/p>\n<p>Henderson has a 23-7 mark (3-2 UFC) and held PRIDE titles in both the Welterweight and Middleweight classes. He has lost two out of his last three fights to Quinton Jackson and Anderson Silva.<\/p>\n<p>Henderson is the favorite as he is the more accomplished fighter at the light heavyweight division, but this is expected to be a very close fight and a lot of the experts are picking a small upset for Franklin.<\/p>\n<p>And if there wasn\u2019t enough incentive to be victorious, the winner will coach the United States team on the next season of \u2018The Ultimate Fighter\u2019 reality show. The coach of the United Kingdom side will be Michael Bisping.<\/p>\n<p>Also on Saturday is a much anticipated rematch between light heavyweights Mauricio \u2018Shogun\u2019 Rua (-365) and Mark Coleman (+285).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 1px solid #ffffff;\" title=\"Sportsbook.com\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_2744b_282\" alt=\"UFC 93 Preview - Odds\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Coleman is a UFC Hall of Famer and \u201cThe Hammer\u2019 has a 15-8 MMA record (6-3 UFC). He hasn\u2019t fought for 27 months and will be moving down a weight class from the heavyweight division.<\/p>\n<p>Rua (16-3 MMA, 0-1 UFC) is the 2005 Pride Grand Prix champion. These two warriors met in 2006 at PRIDE 31 and Coleman got the upset after Rua broke his arm in the first round.<\/p>\n<p>Rua has also taken some time off due to a knee injury, last fighting in September, 2007 in a loss to Forrest Griffin.<\/p>\n<p>However, Coleman is 44 years-old and that\u2019s a big disadvantage over a 27 year-old in his prime, which is why Coleman is the solid underdog.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other UFC 93 Odds <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Denis Kang (-325) vs. Alan Belcher (+250)<br \/>\nMarcus Davis (-145) vs. Chris Lytle (+115)<br \/>\nRousimar Palhares (-450) vs. Jeremy Horn (+300)<br \/>\nMartin Kampmann (-500) vs. Alexandre Barros (+350)<br \/>\nEric Schafer (-125) vs. Antonio Mendes (-105)<br \/>\nTomasz Drwal (-325) vs. Ivan Serati (+250)<br \/>\nJohn Hathaway (-290) vs. Tom Egan (+230)<br \/>\nDennis Siver (-165) vs. Nate Mohr (+135)<\/p>\n<h2>Bet on the fights \u2014 BOXING &#8211; UFC &#8211; MMA &#8211; ELITE XC &#8211; AT THE WORLD\u2019S BIGGEST SPORTSBOOK &#8211; CLICK HERE!<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sportsbook.com bettors will want to get their bets in for early for UFC 93 as the event in Dublin, Ireland is being broadcast on a delay&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1436,25],"tags":[2930,2713,1931,2934,632,1950,911,1028,1178,66508,2931,8633,8776,8777,8629,8778],"class_list":["post-7282","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fight-club","category-sportsbooks","tag-bet-on-fights","tag-boxing","tag-fight-picks","tag-fight-predictions","tag-lines","tag-mma","tag-odds","tag-predictions","tag-sportsbookcom","tag-sportsbooks","tag-ufc","tag-ufc-93","tag-ufc-93-betting-odds","tag-ufc-93-gambling-odds","tag-ufc-93-lines","tag-ufc-93-odds"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7282","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7282"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7282\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":106542,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7282\/revisions\/106542"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7282"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7282"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7282"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
