UFC American lightweight Gran Dawson shared his expectations for the upcoming title fight in his division between champion Islam Makhachev and Dustin Puryear.
"I'm realistic, I'm not stupid. I know how good Makhachev is, how difficult this fight will be for Puryear. However, if there is a guy who can beat Islam, he has to never get tired, have amazing power in his hands and land a beautiful guillotine. Dustin has all three of those qualities. I won't say Makhachev will lose, but Dustin has the qualities to win," Dawson told InsideFight.
Recall that the fight Makhachev - Porier will headline the fight show UFC 302, which will take place on June 1 in Newark, USA.
