Michael Morales posts photo suggesting title eliminator with Carlos Prates

Michael Morales posted a photo on social media that appears to tease a potential matchup with Carlos Prates. The post raises the question of whether these two welterweights should fight to determine the next challenger for the lightweight champion. If Islam Makhachev faces Ian Garry at UFC 330 in August as rumored, the champion would not be ready for his next title defense until November at the earliest. Both Prates and Morales are emerging contenders in their division. The post asks fans to vote on who would win if the UFC books Prates versus Morales.
