Romanov gave a prediction for Makhachev's fight with Porier

Moldovan UFC super featherweight Alexander Romanov gave his prediction for the upcoming fight between the promotion's lightweight champion Islam Makhachev and Dustin Porier.

Puryear.

"Puryear's only trump card is his boxing. If he can impose a stand-up chopping, he has a chance to hit hard and cause problems for Islam. But I don't think Islam's professionalism will allow him to do that. He's going to have the seasoned wolves of the sport in his corner."

As a reminder, Makhachev's confrontation with Porier will headline UFC 302, which takes place on the night of June 2 in Newark.
