Furthermore, with Islam

his next bout have also dropped.

Islam Makhachev favored against top welterweights

UFC 333 is set for Oct. 24 in Abu Dhabi and BetOnline Sports has released odds for both
title fights on the card. Volkanovski, the reigning 145-pound
champ, opened as a slight favorite at -130 against the unbeaten
Evloev (+110). Meanwhile, Yan is a larger favorite at -170 against Dvalishvili
(+150) for their third meeting. Their two bouts so far have been
stark contrasts from one another, with Dvalishvili thoroughly
outwrestling Yan in their first meeting and the latter putting on a
masterclass in their rematch to win the title.

Makhachev defended his welterweight title at UFC 330, earning a
hard-fought decision win over Ian Garry.
The Dagestani is now targeting Carlos
Prates
for his next title defense and opened as a -250 favorite
against the Brazilian (+210).

However, undefeated 170-pounder Michael
Morales
, who was the backup for Makhachev vs. Garry, is also in
the running. The welterweight champion opened as a -210 favorite
against Morales (+180).
