"At the moment the situation is very tense, there is Conor, there is Tony, there are Poirier, Lee and Alvarez, each of them is good in its own way. With any of them, a good, competitive battle will turn out. I never chose my opponents, I fought with those whom I am offered and now I'm not going to choose my opponent. I'm going to return in November or December," wrote the Russian in his Instagram.
Yesterday Kevin Lee beat Edson Barboza and after the battle called out Nurmagomedov.
