As UFC 323 approaches, attention shifts toward bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili and flyweight champion Alexandre Pantoja. Both fighters are listed as clear favorites according to betting odds. Dvalishvili defends his title in a rematch with Petr Yan with odds of –500, which translates to roughly an 83 percent chance of winning. Pantoja is listed at –265 against rising contender Joshua Van, which gives him an implied win probability of about 72 percent. A victory for Dvalishvili could make him the first UFC fighter to secure four title-fight wins in one calendar year.
