UFC American welterweight Joaquin Buckley shared his prediction for the upcoming title rematch between lightweight division champion Islam Makhachev and Arman Tsarukyan, which will take place on January 18 at UFC 311 in Los Angeles, USA.

"Neither one of them has a clear key to victory. We understand what Arman will change, what he will do differently in the rematch. But Islam is the dominant champion right now and I'll give him the win for that reason alone. But you never know what to expect from a guy who is hungry and determined to be champion," Buckley told James Lynch.

Recall that the first meeting of fighters took place in 2019 and ended with the victory of the current holder of the belt on points.
