Lightweight UFC Arman Tsarukyan believes that Islam Makhachev will not receive a title fight if he defeats Bobby Green.

“A little insulting, I wanted to watch the fight between Makhachev and Dariush. It would be a competitive fight. Now the opposition to Islam is no longer the same. Green has a small chance to catch on somewhere, but almost none.

I think that Makhachev will not be given a championship fight after the fight with Green, because Bobby is not even in the top 15. Yes, Islam has a long winning streak, but the UFC will decide. After all, Makhachev did not defeat anyone from the top 5, ”said Tsarukyan.

The Makhachev-Greene fight will take place on the night of February 27 as part of the UFC Fight Night 202 show in Las Vegas. Initially, the Russian's opponent was supposed to be Beneil Dariush, but the American withdrew from the fight due to an injury.
