Islam Makhachev, UFC lightweight champion, called out his main mistake in his fight against Dustin Puryear.
"Not to say that everything went according to plan, but I was in control the whole fight - there were no moments where I was somewhere in danger. The mistake was that I should have had more faith in my stand-up, my striking, and I was a bit wary of his punches. I think I could box with him calmly," - said Makhachev.
We will remind, Makhachev defeated Puryear by choke in the main event of UFC 302.
