UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev gave a commentary on the fight with the ex-belt holder Charles Oliveira, which will take place on October 21 in the main event of UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
“I like my title, I don’t want to lose it. Perhaps someone thinks that I train less - no, I train even more. I know that Oliveira will change something, add something - we have to be ready everywhere. Charles has nothing to lose at this point. Perhaps he will take more risks. But I’ll be ready,” Makhachev said in an interview with the UFC.
Let us remind you that the first fight between Makhachev and Oliveira took place in October last year and ended with the victory of the Dagestani by strangulation in the second round.
