Kurt Pellegrino comes into UFC 101 on Saturday looking to push the pace with an aggressive wrestling attack. The 30-year-old New Jersey native is coming off two consecutive UFC wins over Thiago Tavares and Rob Emerson and is hoping to make good on an excellent opportunity in Philadelphia.

Pellegrino is 13-4 with two wins coming by way of knockout and nine wins coming by way of submission.

Josh "The Dentist" Neer is a guy that has fought some sturdy competition on the minor league circuit on his way to the big show. Neer has a reputation as being a strong puncher for the lightweight division but a close look at his record reveals that he is a balanced fighter.

Bodog has Neer listed as a -250 favorite and Pelligrino pegged at +190 to pull off the upset.

This is a tough one to call as both guys have looked solid in recent outings.
