Nogueira vs Velasquez odds had Cain Velasquez a -120 favorite and Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira listed with -110 odds.

According to the folks at BetUS.com, this is going to be a close, even fight between two rounded fighters. Velasquez has the youth, speed and conditioning advantage whereas Nogueira has the experience and the savvy.

Velasquez is an excellent wrestler but Nogueira has excellent take down defense. He's also strong with submissions. Standing, it is also fairly even.

Velasquez' stamina will keep this close but this will be one of those losses that makes him a better fighter in the long run. Nogueira has been through 39 fights while Velasquez has only had seven. That will play a factor as Big Nog gets the decision.
