UFC 242 in Abu Dhabi was the setting where the promotion’s undisputed lightweight king, Khabib Nurmagomedov, remained undefeated by submitting the interim champion Dustin Poirier in the third round. From a sporting standpoint, that makes the man on an undeniable 12-fight winning streak, Tony Ferguson, the logical contender to be next in line. Bloody Elbow has the betting odds for such potential matchup.
At 28-0, it’s expected for Nurmagomedov to be favored, and online betting site SportsBetting.ag has an opening moneyline for the Russian that represents just that. At an offering of -250, the bookies strongly expect the Khabib to remain undefeated and move to 29-0.
