Khabib Nurmagomedov gave a prediction for the upcoming fight between Islam Makhachev and Alex Volkanovski.

“I told Islam before the previous fight against Charles Oliveira that Volkanovski would be a tougher opponent than Oliveira. Because if Oliveira hadn't made weight, Islam would have fought Volkanovski. I think Volkanovski and Oliveira are comparable in terms of experience, but in terms of fighting IQ and guts, I think Volkanovski is vastly superior to Oliveira in this regard. That's why I think Volkanovski is going to be a tougher opponent for Islam than Charles Oliveira, but it really doesn't matter because we'll finish this guy off."

Recall that the fight between Makhachev and Volkanovski will be held on February 11 in Perth and will be the first defense of his championship belt for Islam.
