(Photo by Minas Panagiotakis/Getty Images) The moment UFC CEO Dana White wrapped the UFC welterweight title around Jack Della Maddalena’s waist, it felt like it was just a matter of time before White would announce that the freshly crowned champion’s next fight would come against Islam Makhachev. While that matchup has no date or location, White has announced that the Della Maddalena vs. Makhachev is set. We look at the opening odds for the next fight for the current UFC welterweight champion and (soon-to-be) former lightweight titleholder. Jack Della Maddalena Vs. Islam Makhachev Opening Betting Odds According to BetOnline, Makhachev opened as the -200 betting favorite over Della Maddalena, who was the +170 betting underdog following his win over Muhammad at UFC 315. Those betting lines have moved. Today, Makhachev is listed at -220, while the champ comes in at +185. How UFC 315 Decided Della Maddalena Vs. Makhachev In the lead up to UFC 315, White was asked if it was true that the winner of the Muhammad vs. Della Maddalena fight would determine if former UFC featherweight champion Ilia Topuria would fight Makhachev for the UFC lightweight title or Charles Oliveira at UFC 317. The implication in that question was that if Muhammad won, then Makhachev would stay put at 155 pounds and not challenge his friend and training partner for the 170-pound crown, but that a Della Maddalena win would result in Makhachev moving up to welterweight to face Della Maddalena. White replied, “There is a lot of moving parts right now, and, yeah, that’s pretty accurate.” Forbes Belal Muhammad Reflects On UFC 315 Title Loss To Jack Della Maddalena By Trent Reinsmith Dana White Announces Della Maddalena Vs.
