Gilbert Burns has been one of the #UFC's best welterweights for years, and was seconds away from becoming a world champion. Now, on a three-fight losing streak — against the current champ, the most recent champ, and a top-three contender — Burns is a huge underdog against the talented, but relatively untested Michael Morales in the main event of #UFCVegas106. Is this line justified, or is Burns being wildly overlooked by the MMA community? Ahead of Saturday's #UFCFightNight card at the APEX in Las Vegas, #MMA Fighting's Mike Heck and Alexander K. Lee preview the event, the headliner between Burns and Morales, the stakes for both fighters, and where Burns goes with his fourth straight loss. Additionally, they'll touch on other standout matchups on the card, Sodiq Yusuff making the move to the lightweight division, Paul Craig potentially fighting for his job, and much more. 🔵 Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4f1JueVgo5t9HSmobCRPug/join 🔵 Subscribe to MMA Fighting on YouTube: http://goo.gl/dYpsgH 🔵 Subscribe to MMA Fighting feed on iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mma-fighting/id320642139 🔴 Check out our full video catalog: http://goo.gl/u8VvLi 🔴 Visit our playlists: http://goo.gl/eFhsvM 🔗 Like on Facebook: https://mma-fighting.visitlink.me/jXx747 🔗 Follow on X: https://mma-fighting.visitlink.me/oHZAG3 🔗 Follow on Instagram: https://mma-fighting.visitlink.me/eZP5ff 🔗 Follow on TikTok: https://mma-fighting.visitlink.me/DZzQ3W 🔗 Follow on Threads: https://mma-fighting.visitlink.me/pJJ2xj 🔗 Follow on Bluesky: https://mma-fighting.visitlink.me/GIxe-N 🔗 Subscribe on Twitch: https://mma-fighting.visitlink.me/nSjCJV Read More: http://www.mmafighting.com MMA Fighting is your home for exclusive interviews, live shows, and more for one of the world's fastest-growing sports.
