Daniel Cormier, former UFC champion in two weight categories and current commentator and analyst, named the toughest opponents for the organization's current lightweight champion Islam Makhachev. In DC's opinion, those opponents are Arman Tsarukyan and Mateusz Gumport.

"Any fighter from the top 10 will give a good fight. But honestly, Arman Tsarukyan and Mateusz Gamroth are the toughest opponents for Islam," Cormier said on his YouTube channel.

Tsarukyan and Makhachev have already met in the octagon, and then Islam won by unanimous decision of the judges.

Recall, in the framework of the anniversary UFC 300, which will be held on April 14 in Las Vegas, Arman Tsarukyan will fight Charles Oliveira, former champion of the organization in the lightweight division.
