Grant Dawson has been singled out as a betting lock to defeat Mateusz Rebecki in their lightweight showdown on the UFC 328 prelims.
UFC 328 is set for Sat., May 9, 2026, at Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, also known as "The Garden State," with Khamzat Chimaev defending the UFC middleweight title against Sean Strickland in the main event. On the undercard, Dawson vs. Rebecki is billed as a "Teammate vs. Teammate" matchup between American Top Team fighters.
The betting recommendation centers on Grant Dawson moneyline at -166, with additional odds listed for multiple potential outcomes in the bout. The pick comes as part of MMAmania.com's weekly betting series, "Weekend Lock."
The author notes their previous selection missed when Tai Tuivasa, nicknamed "Bam Bam," did not defeat Louie Sutherland, and leans on the belief that "styles make fights" in backing Dawson against Rebecki.
