"It's a win-win situation for the UFC. Islam wants to fight and I think this fight needs to be organized as soon as possible. For Dustin, it's a huge opportunity. For Islam Makhachev, it's another former champion to make a title defense against. It's an open story. You can't predict the outcome, but you can give one of them a chance to pull off a miracle. You, as a company, will benefit from that. Organize it - Makhachev vs. Porier. It's a huge fight. It will be the biggest fight in Islam Makhachev's career in terms of box office receipts".
