Islam Makhachev Hoping To Get One Step Closer To UFC Gold
3 years agoFew will argue if you mad the statement that Islam Makhachev (21-1) is the best fighter in the UFC to have not won UFC gold in his career yet. With that being said, he can take one step closer to obtaining that goal of championship aspirations when he battles Bobby Green in Saturday night's main event. Since his first-round knockout loss in October of 2015, Makhachev has gone 9-0 in the UFC, with five of those bouts ending in a finish. His last three victories in a row have all come by submission. DraftKings clearly sees Makhachev as the night's biggest favorite with a salary of $9,500. Throughout his UFC career, Makhachev averages 90.6 fantasy points per contest. Especially with Green taking this fight on one week's notice, build your fantasy lineups around Makhachev.
