Russian lightweight UFC Islam Makhachev reacted to the statements of the ex-champion of the promotion in two weight categories ConorMcGregor about readiness to fight with him.

Recall that the Irishman also criticized Makhachev's boxing skills and expressed confidence that he would easily deal with him.

“Probably the fans will be interested, but I don’t take these words seriously - it will be difficult for him to lose weight to 155 pounds, since he constantly drinks. A lot of guys in the division will just smash it.

I think he will fight with Nate Diaz or meet with one of the veterans, earn money, and that's it. He will never become a champion - he will not reach this level, ”Makhachev said in an interview with ESPN.
