UFC Vegas 106 Preview Show | Is Gilbert Burns Being Overlooked vs. Michael Morales In Main Event?

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 UFC Vegas 106. Is this line justified, or is Burns being wildly overlooked by the MMA community?

Ahead of Saturday's Fight Night 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.
