Khabib Nurmagomedov, former UFC lightweight champion, revealed who Islam Makhachev could fight next.
“Islam has a plan to fight before Ramadan. I would like him to fight Volkanovski. Of course, there is Beneil Dariush - eight victories. You can't leave him either. But Volkanovski is number one pound-for-pound, a big name. The UFC wants, and if they want, go ahead. Or Volkanovski, or Dariush. It turns out that this is at the beginning of March.”
Recall that just yesterday, Makhachev won the UFC lightweight champion belt by “choking” Charles Oliveira in the second round.
