The fight between the Dagestani and the American will take place on June 1 at UFC 302 in Newark, USA.
"Islam will try to pin Dustin to the cage, to drop him and hold a hold. But if he can't do that, the situation will be dangerous for Makhachev. In a boxing match, Porier is on another level - faster, stronger. He can easily knock out Makhachev. That's why Islam needs to try to get a knockdown as early as possible.
For me, Islam is the favorite of the fight. But I'm ready to put money on Dustin winning by knockout," Tsarukyan told New York Post Sports.
