Ali Abdel-Aziz, manager of UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev, is confident his client will score a dominant victory over former interim belt holder Dustin Porye in their upcoming bout.
"Islam has to step into the octagon and run over Dustin Porier. That's the plan we have. I respect Dustin, but what Islam needs right now is a dominant win.
I think the only chance Puryear has is a lucky punch. Lucky punch, nothing more. If we talk about fighting skills, I think Islam now absolutely any opponent can wipe the floor," - quotes the words of the manager MMA Fighting.
Recall, the fight Makhachev - Porier will be the main event of the tournament UFC 302, which will be held on the night of June 2 in Newark, USA.
