"Hard to tell. Although before the first fight I predicted that Islam would dominate, and now I think it will be the same, but everyone highlighted how Strickland won the title. Could anyone have imagined that he would beat Adesanya so easily? MMA is a crazy sport.
Now, after Strickland won, after Sterling lost to O'Malley, I think this is the year of the underdog. Therefore, Charles has a good chance of winning. Although his opponent is very serious. Islam is a top-notch athlete,” Moicano said in an interview with Combate.
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 choke in the second round.
