After conquering the world by racking up four knockouts in four title fights, Alex Poatan faced his biggest challenge in the UFC: Magomed Ankalaev . In the main event of UFC 313 , the Brazilian was unable to impose his game and ended up losing by unanimous decision (48-47, 48-47, 49-46).
Now, to reclaim the belt, Poatan needs to overcome the Russian's favoritism in the betting odds. Magomed Ankalaev has odds of 1,38, which means low investment risk, while Poatan has odds of 3,15, offering a return of more than three times the amount wagered.

In the co-main event, Cory Sandhagen faces the unenviable task of ending Merab Dvalishvili 's reign . The champion is on a 13-fight winning streak, including three title fights. Betting odds favor a 14th victory for the Georgian, at 1,26, compared to 4,10 for the American challenger.

Interestingly, both are experiencing very similar streaks: they were defeated by Alex Poatan and then won against Jamahal Hill . However, the odds favor the 'Czech Samurai', with odds of 1,48, against 2,75 for the 'War Horse'.
