Cro Cop is actually a +140 underdog in UFC 115 odds against “Get Hype” Barry who is a -170 betting favorite at online sportsbooks. “I will keep fighting as long as I can,” said Cro Cop.

Liddell has lost four out of his last five bouts while Crop Cop has not won a top Mixed Martial Arts bout since 2006. In fact, both fighters considered retirement after recent failures but decided to make another title run instead. Barry has a lot of respect for Cro Cop and considers him a legitimate threat in their bout tonight. “He’s not older, slower, weaker, nothing,” said Barry. “It’s everybody else got better is what happened.” Franklin was a champion in the middleweight division and is not used to fighting at this increased weight. But he couldn’t turn down a shot at Liddell. “When you have the opportunity to fight someone like Chuck, that’s just not something you can turn down.” Bet Chuck Liddell -105 in UFC 115 predictions vs Rich Franklin with up to a $100 bonus.
