UFC Fight Night 27 Odds and Betting Lines: Carlos Condit vs. Martin Kampmann 2

Four years since their first meeting, Carlos Condit and Martin Kampmann will once again cross paths. They will meet this time in the main event of the Ultimate Fighting Championship Fight Night 27 at the Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis on August 28.

Both fighters lost to current welterweight top contender Johny Hendricks in each of their last fights. Condit suffered a unanimous decision while Kampmann got rocked by a left hand in the first round for a knockout loss. A victory in this upcoming match-up will bring the winner a step closer back to relevancy in the welterweight division.

The co-main event has a pair of lightweight spitfires Donald Cerrone and Rafael dos Anjos, both on a mission to beat the hell out of the other. Other fights on the undercard feature a stream of familiar Ultimate Fighter tough guys and up-and-comers.

Betting on Carlos Condit in UFC Fight Night 27

When Condit lost to Kampmann in their first fight in 2009, he quickly got back on his feet and impressively strung together five straight wins against strong opponents like Dong Hyun Kim, Dan Hardy, and Nick Diaz.  His win against Diaz made him the UFC’s interim welterweight champion and earned him a ticket to face reigning champion Georges St-Pierre—to whom Condit eventually lost.

Condit suffered his pro-career’s first back-to-back losses when he lost his following assignment against Johny Hendricks. Coming into that fight, Hendricks was a slight favorite being priced at -150 while Condit, +110. A bout against a familiar foe like Kampmann may be what the man they call “The Natural Born Killer” needs in order to rejuvenate his career.

Condit currently holds a 28-7 record. Bet on Carlos Condit at Top Bet sportsbook.
