The UFC just announced an absolute banger.
Flyweight champion Alexander Volkanovski is back in action on October 24, defending his belt against the undefeated Movsar Evloev in the main event of UFC 333 in Abu Dhabi.
Volkanovski is a slight -115 favorite on DraftKings Sportsbook, while Evloev sits at -105 on the moneyline.
Volkanovski (28–4, 15–3 UFC) is coming off back-to-back wins over Diego Lopes for the 145-pound strap. The future Hall of Famer, 37, is tied with Jose Aldo for the most title fight wins in the division’s history (8).
Evloev (20–0, 10–0 UFC) heads into his first title shot on a torrid run of form. The Russian’s last five wins have come against Dan Ige, Lopes, Arnold Allen, Aljamain Sterling, and, most recently, the previously undefeated Lerone Murphy.
In the co-main event of the evening, Petr Yan will put his bantamweight title on the line in a highly anticipated trilogy bout with former titleholder Merab Dvalishvili.
