Alvarez told who would win the fight Khabib - Makhachev

American mixed martial arts titlist Eddie Alvarez believes former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov would have been able to defeat his friend, former titleholder Islam Makhachev.

"I think the victory would have stayed with Khabib. Especially considering the damage Porier did to Islam. It would have been a boring fight. Hardly anyone would have been interested in it. Maybe viewers would have been attracted to the fact that they're like brothers. It wouldn't have been that cool to watch. It would be a chess match that would appeal only to other fighters," - said Alvarez on the air of the show The MMA Hour.

Recall that last weekend at UFC 302 Makhachev made his third title defense, defeating Dustin Puryear with a choke hold.
