<p>Apparently a six-second knockout isn't enough to sway Vegas oddsmakers, as <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fighter/122481/chan-sung-jung" target="_blank">"The Korean Zombie" Chan Sung Jung</a> will be a slight underdog when he takes on <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fighter/122973/dustin-poirier" target="_blank">Dustin Poirier</a> this Tuesday, in the main event of <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fight-card/95270/ufc-on-fuel-tv-3" target="_blank">UFC on Fuel 3</a>. The stakes have never been higher for the two burgeoning contenders, as the winner of the bout is likely to earn the next UFC featherweight title shot.</p>
<p>Additionally, <i>The Ultimate Fighter 7</i> winner <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fighter/122897/amir-sadollah" target="_blank">Amir Sadollah</a> has been pegged as the narrow favorite over <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fighter/131157/jorge-lopez" target="_blank">Jorge Lopez</a>, and WEC veteran <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fighter/122525/donald-cerrone" target="_blank">Donald Cerrone</a> will be nearly a 3-to-1 favorite when he climbs into the cage against <a href="http://www.sbnation.com/mma/fighter/122545/jeremy-stephens" target="_blank">Jeremy Stephens</a>. <span style="line-height: 9px;">Complete </span>UFC on Fuel 3 odds can be seen below.</p>
