Champion Aljamain Sterling Set For Title Defense
2 years agoSet for his second title defense as the UFC's bantamweight champion, Aljamain Sterling (21-3) will face off against a former champion in T.J. Dillashaw in the co-main event of UFC 280 on Saturday. With two wins over Petr Yan, Sterling is on the best run of his career. A dangerous submission finisher, eight of his 21 career wins have come by submission and four have come in the UFC. DraftKings sees the champion as the favorite with a salary of $8,500. Throughout his UFC career, Sterling averages 80.7 fantasy points per contest. Dillashaw is coming off of a 15-month layoff and has only competed once since 2019. The layoff may be too much for Dillashaw to overcome against a champion in his prime.
