Earlier it became known that their confrontation could take place on June 29 in Las Vegas.
"I asked to make our fight a five-round fight, I fight better at that distance. Of course, I'm attracted to the idea of a three-round fight at a crazy pace, after two or three years of fighting only five rounds. In his last fight, Nurmagomedov was breathing hard, he showed his vulnerability. But at the same time I want to recognize that Umar fought at a very high pace," the American said in an interview with Fanatics View.
