Former UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov expressed confidence that his friend and sparring partner Islam Makhachev will win an early victory in the upcoming duel with Beneil Dariush.

“Dariush is on a series of seven victories, he has tremendous experience. It seems that he already has 20 fights in the UFC behind him. This is a real challenge for Islam, but I think he can finish this guy. I sincerely believe that from the second to the fourth round he can stop Dariush,” Nurmagomedov said on Full Send Podcast.

Recall that the fight between Makhachev and Dariush will take place on February 26 at the UFC Fight Night 202 tournament.
