Islam Makhachev (26-1) is set to defend his lightweight title in the main event of UFC 311 on Saturday as he rematches Arman Tsarukyan. Makhachev is coming off a submission win over Dustin Poirier and enters the bout as a sizeable favorite as DraftKings has him at a salary of $9,400. In the UFC, Makhachev is 15-1 with 10 wins by stoppage while he was knocked out in his lone loss. Makhachev beat Tsarukyan by decision in a three-round fight in 2019. If Makhachev wins, he will further cement himself as one of the best lightweights.--Cole Shelton
