The Early Edge: A Daily Sports Betting Podcast

Belal Muhammad returns to headline UFC Fight Night against rising contender Gabriel Bonfim in a pivotal welterweight showdown that could signal a changing of the guard. Sia Nejad, Danny Brasco, and Hayden Winks break down the biggest storylines from UFC Vegas 118, including Brendan Allen vs. Edmen Shahbazyan, Bryce Mitchell's bantamweight debut, and Fares Ziam's quest for a seventh straight victory.

Then the crew dives into their favorite bets for the card, including underdogs, props, prelim plays, and best bets for the main event. Will Belal remind everyone why he's been among the division's elite, or is Bonfim ready to announce himself as the next contender?
