UFC Fight Night betting preview

Malott, 34, had no professional MMA fights from February 2017 until his return in December 2020, but he's been a major force in the welterweight division since coming back. Malott is 13-2-1 all time, including 8-1 since his return, with seven of those being official UFC fights.

His six UFC wins are evenly spread out with two by decision, two by submission and two by KO/TKO. 

Meanwhile, Gilbert Burns, 39, has been a staple in the MMA world since his debut in 2012. Burns is 22-9 all-time and 15-9 in the UFC. But Burns enters on a four-fight losing streak, most recently falling to Michael Morales by TKO in the first round of a UFC Fight Night in May. His last win was in April 2023. 

For UFC betting, Malott is a -278 favorite, while Burns is a +225 underdog in the latest UFC Fight Night odds at DraftKings.
