After what somehow felt like an eternity, UFC 280 is finally happening this weekend. The top of the billing will be for the controversially vacant lightweight strap when the should-be champion, Charles Oliveira, meets the #4 ranked 155-pounder, Islam Makhachev. In the co-main event, the UFC’s bantamweight king, Aljamain Sterling, will tangle with the former champ, T.J. Dillashaw. Let’s go check out what the betting odds have to say about these title tilts.
Charles Oliveira is currently the people’s champ after a wonky weigh-in at UFC 274 resulted in him not having the official lightweight crown. We all still view him as the champion, but still the oddsmakers believe that his time on the throne is about to come to an end.
