Alexandr Ormanji May 23, 2024, 12:19 p.m.

Anthony Smith, former challenger for the UFC bantamweight championship belt, shared his opinion on the upcoming fight between the promotion's lightweight champion Islam Makhachev and Dustin Puryear.

"I like this fight. I don't agree that it's an easy fight for Islam. Islam unlike Khabib is willing to fight in the stand-up and that gives more opportunities for Porier. Dustin is very dangerous on the feet. This fight is much more interesting than people think," - ESPN MMA.

Recall, the bout between Makhachev and Porye will take place on June 1 and will headline the 302nd tournament of the promotion.
