Islam Makhachev, UFC lightweight champion, talked about how he forces himself to train in preparation for fights.
“I know what it takes. I don’t play football. There I will lose, and that’s it. But here, if I go out unprepared, I will simply be torn, beaten, and it will look bad. There they have no personal responsibility. I just gave an example. If they lose, then the team loses, and that’s it. At most, they can run into the goalkeeper if he missed,” said Makhachev.
