UFC bantamweight fighter Umar Nurmagomedov spoke about a potential fight between the organization's featherweight champion Ilia Topuria and lightweight champion Islam Makhachev.
I would not say that he has a chance against Islam. I saw him - he will be small in the lightweight division. He is almost my height, maybe a little taller, and I don’t see any chance for him with Islam and Khabib. The man just knows how to promote himself. Why does he need Islam? There is also Movsar, who is on a winning streak and is also an undefeated fighter. It would be a good fight. Of course, I would root for my brother Movsar, but I cannot say that he is guaranteed to pass Topuria. Two ambitious fighters, two stones. Topuria has a heavy blow, but Movsar fights well, and after the fight the blow weakens. I would like to see this fight."
