UFC 77 is fast approaching and betED.com has released betting lines for the mixed martial arts event.

UFC 77: Hostile Territory, slated for Oct. 20 at the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, features a UFC middleweight title rematch between champion Anderson Silva and challenger Rich Franklin, as well as a heavyweight showdown between former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia and the returning Brandon Vera.

betED.com has Silva favored at -190 and Franklin the underdog at +160. In the heavyweight bout, Vera is the favorite at -175 while Sylvia is +155.

While Silva is the favorite, he will be facing a hostile crowd. The event’s name of "Hostile Territory" comes from the fact that Silva will defend his UFC middleweight title against former champ Franklin in Franklin’s hometown of Cincinnati.

Silva is a Brazilian Muay Thai champion, and also the current Cage Rage World Middleweight champion. Formerly a competitor in PRIDE Fighting Championships, Shooto and Rumble on the Rock, Silva formed the Muay Thai Dream Team before forming a new team last year called Black House.

MMAWeekly, Sherdog and Nokaut all currently rank Silva as the No. 1 middleweight in the world and fighting-mma.com has him ranked as #2 behind Dan Henderson who fights at both the light heavyweight and middleweight division.

Also on the card for UFC 77 are middleweight prospects Alan “The Talent” Belcher and Kalib Starnes.

A fierce competitor who has shown the ability to end fights by submission or spectacular knockout, Belcher (10-3) moved up to light heavyweight on short notice in May and submitted Sean Salmon in less than a minute.

Now back at middleweight, Belcher looks to make it two in a row against Starnes (10-2-1), a well-rounded Canadian who worked with the renowned American Top Team earlier this year.

Kimbo Slice (-400) vs. Ken Shamrock (+320)
As a mixed martial arts purist I really want so badly for Ken Shamrock (26-13-2) to beat Kimbo Slice (3-0).However, Ken Shamrock is now 44 years old and has been knocked out in his last 5 fights and has only 2 wins in his last 9 fights...read more

UFC Fight Night 15
Nate Diaz (-185) vs. Josh Neer (+155)
When it comes to fighting, Nate Diaz (9-2) has so many weapons and is better than Neer in almost every category. The online UFC betting lines at Bookmaker.com currently have Diaz as a -185 but I would have thought the sportsbook odds makers would have set the betting lines higher...read more
