This Saturday’s UFC 89 card from across the pond (available for free in North America via tape delay) is really more of an appetizer for the hotly anticipated UFC 90 show next month at the former Rosemont Horizon on the outskirts of Chicago. The main event has Anderson Silva defending his UFC middleweight title against Patrick Cote.

Cote is a +475 underdog to pull off what would be an industry-shaking upset. Silva is considered the top pound-for-pound fighter in the world, and a win over Cote would presumably set the stage for a big-money fight between Silva and another Quebec native, Georges St. Pierre. Cote and St. Pierre train together in Montreal.

Cote has won his last five fights, all of which came after he competed in The Ultimate Fighter 4. Backing the TUF alumni has been a goldmine for MMA handicappers; think Keith Jardine (+300) over Chuck Liddell.
