Shavkat Rakhmonov spoke about when he plans to return to the octagon.
“At the moment, I’m recovering from an injury. I want to return by the end of the year, somewhere around November or December. If my health permits and I am ready. Who would I like to fight? Right now — the title fight between Islam and Jack Della Maddalena. Well, I don’t care who I fight among them. A contender fight can be arranged. The most important thing is that I am ready to compete,” said Rakhmonov in an interview with the UFC press service.
