Michael Morales posts photo suggesting potential matchup with Carlos Prates

Ecuadorian welterweight Michael Morales posted a photo on social media that appears to suggest a potential bout between himself and Carlos Prates. The post questions whether these two fighters should face each other to determine who gets a title shot, or if the answer is already clear. If Islam Makhachev versus Ian Garry materializes at UFC 330 in August as rumored, the champion would not be ready for another defense until November at the earliest. The post asks followers to vote on who would win a hypothetical Prates versus Morales matchup.
