Sean Strickland’s recent split-decision victory over Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 328 on May 9 positions the two-time middleweight champion as the clear trader favorite to finish 2026 atop the division, reflecting his proven ability to outpoint elite wrestlers in five-round title fights. Chimaev’s first career loss has shifted momentum toward Strickland’s veteran durability and counter-striking, while Nassourdine Imavov’s strong recent form keeps him as the leading challenger with a realistic path to a title shot. Dricus Du Plessis and other contenders trail due to recent defeats and scheduling uncertainty, though the division’s depth means any extended layoff or injury could quickly alter the implied probabilities reflected in current market pricing.
