Anik named the only way to defeat Makhachev

UFC commentator, expert and analyst Jon Anik shared his thoughts on how to defeat the promotion's lightweight champion Islam Makhachev.

"With all due respect to Arman Tsarukyan and other fighters, if Islam is feeling good, the only way to beat him is to send him to sleep like Adriano Martins did a hundred years ago. Otherwise, Islam will find a way to beat you - he gets better with every fight," Anik said on his podcast.

We will remind, on June 1 at UFC 302 Makhachev defeated Dustin Porier with a choke hold in the fifth round.
