Khabib Nurmagomedov, former UFC lightweight champion, named the best, in his opinion, opponent for the organization's new featherweight champion Ilia Topuria. In Khabib's opinion, the Spanish-Georgian fighter should fight Movsar Yevloyev, who is undefeated. At the same time, Khabib doesn't know if UFC CEO Dana White will give Movsar a title fight. It is worth noting that the functionary criticized Evloev's last fight after Allen, calling it extremely boring.

"Movsar Yevloev is the best opponent for Elijah Topuria. But I don't know if Dana White will give a title fight to Movsar. My opinion - Yevloyev deserves this chance," Khabib told MMA Junkie.
