Current UFC on FOX 3 Betting Odds – On Saturday, May 5, 2012, UFC returns to the FOX network with their third installment of UFC on FOX, live from the IZOD Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Headlining the event is a big showdown between two of the Lightweight division’s most prolific submission grapplers, as Stockton’s own Nathan Diaz will square off against hometown favorite Jim Miller. Both of these guys have world-class ground games and extremely effective submissions, which could turn this into a legendary ground battle. Diaz, for his part, is also a very dangerous striker with unorthodox but effective boxing and great judo throws from the clinch, while Miller is the stronger of the two and the better wrestler. On the ground both of these guys have the ability to catch the other, so this might come down to whether or not Diaz can box Miller around or whether Miller will be able to out muscle Diaz and control position.

In the semi-main event, American Kickboxing Academy’s Josh Koscheck will look to avenge teammate Jon Fitch’s recent shocking upset loss against up and comer Johny Hendricks. Koscheck is obviously one of the most dominant wrestlers at 170 pounds, but Hendricks has shown time and again that he has fight ending power in his hands, so this should be a great Welterweight clash. Rounding out the card are a middleweight bout between Rousimar “Toquinho” Palhares and Alan Belcher, a Heavyweight slug fest pitting Lavar Johnson against Pat Barry, and a lightweight showdown between Thiago Tavares and Tony Ferguson.
