UFC 289 gets going this Saturday, June 10 at Rogers Arena in Canada. The marquee fight of the night will be a women's bantamweight title bout between Amanda Nunes and Irene Aldana. Also on the card is a co-main event between two of the lightweight division's finest, Charles Oliveira and Beneil Dariush.
Dariush (22-4-1) opens as a -145 betting favorite at Draftkings Sportsbook. He has quickly gained momentum in the lightweight division, rising to the top five all while winning his last eight bouts. Now he gets an opportunity for a statement win against the division's top contender in Oliveira.
In his last bout he defeated Mateusz Gamrot by way of unanimous decision, in a very entertaining fight.
