And then Aljamain Sterling will defend his bantamweight title against TJ Dillashaw.

UFC 280 Main Card

Lightweight Title Bout

In sum, Charles Oliveira is 33-8 in his offshore betting career. Islam Makhachev enters the octagon with a career mark of 22-1.

Previously, Charles Oliveira was the UFC lightweight champion. And he successfully defended that championship one time. But in his second title defense bout, Oliveira missed weight. Despite defeating Just Gaethje in a 1st-round submission, he was stripped of the title bet. That bout against Gaethje took place on May 7, 222. Originally, Oliveira won the lightweight title with a 2nd-round technical knockout win over Michael Chandler. And then he scored a 3rd-round submission win over Dustin Poirier on December 11, 20212.

Late on, Islam Makhachev is riding a 10-bout winning streak. Makhachev is coming off a 1st-round technical knockout win over Bobby Green on February 26, 2022. Makhachev will be entering his first championship bout opportunity on Saturday.

Bantamweight Title Bout

Aljamain Sterling has a career marker of 21-3. By contrast, TJ Dillashaw is 18-4 in his career.

Aljamain Sterling has won seven consecutive bouts. On March 6, 2021, Sterling won a 4th-round DQ against Petr Yan for the bantamweight title. Next, Sterling won a split decision over Yan in the rematch on April 9, 2022.

However, TJ Dillashaw has won five of his most recent six bouts. Most important of all, he is a recent UFC bantamweight champion.

Bantamweight Bout

Overall, Petr Yan has a career UFC Betting odds record of 16-3. Sean O’Malley is 15-1 in his career.
