Former UFC interim lightweight title holder Dustin Poirier revealed the secret of success of the current undisputed champion of the division Islam Makhacheva.
“Islam has been speaking out for a long time. He is a champion, he is defending his title. And he will only get better. He is surrounded by great people, great training partners, a great team, so he is developing. Everyone is getting better at every aspect of MMA these days. There are practically no one-sided fighters left,” MMA Junkie quotes the American.
Let us remind you that on October 21, at the UFC 284 tournament, Makhachev held his second defense of the belt, knocking out Alexander Volkanovski in the first round.
