Prates bets on Garry to shock Makhachev at UFC 330

Carlos Prates predicts Ian Garry will defeat Islam Makhachev by decision at UFC 330, citing Garry’s proven movement and a past win over Prates; bettors still favor Makhachev (-350) to Garry (+270); Prates’ view may stem from respect or hopeful thinking, and the piece notes Garry’s ambition to stay active with multiple title fights per year as Makhachev’s defenses remain infrequent through 2027.

McGregor hedges on summer comeback as UFC talks drag on

Leon Edwards on UFC President and Colby Covington Controversy: "It's Alright, We're Not Best Pals"

Leon Edwards, the UFC welterweight champion, has opened up about his relationship with UFC President Dana White amid the Colby Covington controversy. Edwards finds himself closer to Hunter Campbell, the UFC Chief Business Officer. He believes that Covington hasn’t earned his position as the next challenger for his welterweight strap, as he has been sitting on the sidelines, turning down fights for over a year. Despite this, it is likely that Covington will be his next opponent, unless the situation takes a dramatic change.
