Michael Morales shared a photo on social media raising questions about potential matchups. The post asks whether Morales and Prates need to fight to determine who faces the champion, or if the answer is already clear. If Makhachev versus Garry happens at UFC 330 in August as rumored, the champion would not be ready for his next defense until November at the earliest. The post includes a poll asking who would win if UFC books Prates versus Morales. The timing suggests discussions about establishing a clear number one contender.
