"Islam will defend in the fight against Porier and then we have a fight with Arman (Tsarukyan). We have to admit, he deserved this fight, he got to the top of the rankings and defeated all his opponents. For now we have these two fights on the horizon, and then we'll see. A fight with Tsarukyan this year? Yes, it could be in Abu Dhabi or New York," said the functionary.
Recall that the fight between Islam Makhachev and Dustin Porier will be held on June 1 in the framework of UFC 302.
