The UFC is coming off a near record year in terms of title turnover, and it’ll be interesting to see if that continues in 2024. In 2023, UFC championships changed hands 11 times , including two interim champions, which tied for the second most title changes in the promotion’s history. With UFC Fight Night 234 set to kick off the new year of events, it’s the perfect time to see how oddsmakers view each division and who could be UFC champions when the calendar reaches December 31, 2024. The odds via DraftKings are broken down below by division and include the top 10, but before you check them out, here are some notes that stand out: Former middleweight champion Israel Adesanya , who’s failed once to win the light heavyweight title, has the sixth-highest odds at +800 to end the year as 205-pound champion. Bo Nickal , who’s currently unranked at middleweight, has the fifth-highest odds at +550 to end the year as 185-pound champion. Islam Makhachev , the current lightweight champion, has the fourth-highest odds at +500 to end the year as welterweight champion
