Islam Makhachev has started his training camp and is aiming to compete in July, according to reports. The lightweight champion's planned timeline suggests a summer return to the octagon. Additionally, Michael Morales has reportedly signed a contract for an upcoming bout, though details about his opponent and event remain unspecified. The post suggests a connection between these two developments but does not elaborate further. Makhachev's July target would align with typical UFC scheduling for championship fights. No official announcement has been made by the UFC regarding either fighter's next appearance.
