"I don't know if you can call it a weakness. But Islam is right: I have a hard time with opponents who slow the fight down and turn it into grappling chess. Because I love it when the fight stays a fight, when punches are exchanged and we both bleed. That's when I look my best. I'm going to try to come out and knock Islam out, hurt him. That's my style," Puryear said in an interview with TMZ Sports.
Recall, the fight between Porye and Makhachev will take place on June 1, topping the 302nd tournament of the promotion.
