Makhachev is ready to insure the fight between Edwards and Covington

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev said that he plans to attend the title fight in the welterweight division between Leon Edwards And Colby Covington, which will take place on December 16 at the UFC 296 tournament in Las Vegas.

Moreover, the Dagestani is even ready to insure this fight if the promotion management asks him to do so.

“I will go to this fight. If the UFC offers to provide insurance, you can sit down with your team and think about it. Why not. You don't really need to lose weight. The form is good, just maintain it and that’s it,” said Makhachev, who will have a rematch with Alexander Volkanovski on October 21 at UFC 294 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
