Fans across the United States can watch Makhachev vs. Volkanovski and the entire UFC 284 fight card live from the comfort of their own home by ordering the UFC 284 PPV on ESPN+. The promotion starts at the usual time on Saturday night with the main PPV card starting at 10pm ET.
Although this main event was a duel between the top two fighters in the promotion, it was completely one-sided in terms of betting action. Makhachev’s size and wrestling prowess appears to be the key factor here as the lightweight champion will move into the octagon as a -380 favorite. The gap has widened ahead of the UFC 284 main event as Makhachev was available as a -315 option late last year.
Volkanovski, on the other hand, already offered decent value last year at +260 odds, but has since become a +310 underdog in the fight week.
Below are the latest odds of every UFC 284 fight, including the Interim Featherweight Championship fight between Yair Rodriguez and Josh Emmett.
