Islam Makhachev’s position as the overwhelming favorite to remain UFC welterweight champion through the end of 2026 stems from his permanent move up from lightweight, where he captured the 170-pound title in November 2025 and defended it via unanimous decision against Ian Machado Garry at UFC 330 in August 2026. The 34-year-old extended his UFC win streak to 17 while adding muscle under coach Javier Mendez, easing weight cuts and committing to frequent bouts at welterweight. Recent activity by top contenders such as Carlos Prates and undefeated Michael Morales has yet to produce a clear threat capable of dethroning him before year-end, though an injury, late-career slowdown, or upset finish from a power striker could still alter the outcome. Trader consensus reflects Makhachev’s proven grappling control and divisional dominance as the primary drivers of this probability.
