Islam Makhachev, the current UFC lightweight champion, spoke about how he feels about the so-called pop MMA

“There are guys there who behave decently, like normal representatives of their nations. And so I don’t approve at all and don’t watch this pop MMA. This is no longer a sport, but a show. It doesn't appeal to me at all. When you see how the guys behave there, some kind of fight and all this pops up on social networks in clips, you see all this... As they say, Spanish shame,” said Makhachev.

Let us remember that earlier Makhachev reacted to the outcome of the Volkanovski-Topuria fight, supporting Alex and congratulating Ilya on winning the featherweight championship belt.
