Makhachev: “I’ll fight my next fight in June or July”

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev outlined the timing of his return to the Octagon.

“I will have my next fight in June or July. I work out every day—nothing serious, just keeping in shape. I’m a champion, so I always have to be ready — everyone wants to take my belt,” the Dagestani MMA Squad quotes.

Makhachev fought his last fight in October last year at the UFC 294 tournament in Abu Dhabi, UAE, knocking out Alexander Volkanovski in the first round.
