Carlos Prates predicts that Ian Garry will defeat Islam Makhachev in a decision at UFC 330, scheduled for August 15 at Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia. Makhachev, holding a 28-1 record, is the reigning welterweight champion and is favored at -330. Despite this, Prates believes Garry, who has a record of 17-1, poses a legitimate challenge to halt Makhachev's historic win streak. Prates himself lost to Garry in a previous bout but has rebounded with notable victories against Geoff Neal and Leon Edwards. UFC 330 will mark Makhachev's first title defense.
