Islam Makhachev

UFC Lightweight Champion Islam Makhachev told how he plans to defeat the title holder in the featherweight division Alexandra Volkanovski.

“This is not going to be a win by submission. I will bring down blows on him in the stalls, make him find himself in a difficult position. And when he thinks: “This is not my division, I don’t want to take more damage, he will give up,” Sportskeeda quotes the Russian.

Recall that the Makhachev-Volkanovski fight will headline the UFC 284 tournament, which will be held on February 12 in Perth, Australia.
