Earlier it became known that the Dagestani and the American will meet in the main event of UFC 302, which will take place on June 1 in Newark, USA.
"I would say that Mateusz Gamrot should be closer to the titleholder. Gamrot has been fighting top guys for a long time, I've dealt him his only meaningful defeat. So Gamrot is more deserving of a title shot. However, overall I'm not against the Porier - Makhachev fight. There are no more suitable options for a fight for the belt right now," said Dariusz in an interview with Submission Radio.
