Makhachev criticizes UFC for organizing Pimblett vs. Gaethje fight

“Let the organization be offended, but now more and more fights are being arranged that are unclear to me. Of course, I think Arman should have fought for the title. If he doesn't fight now, Pimblett and Gaethje will fight, and whoever wins will fight Topuria — this means Arman has to wait another year. I don't know, it's a difficult situation for him. I also went through this in my career — I had to have ten winning fights to get to the title. Arman probably needs to wait a little and be patient now,” said the current UFC welterweight champion in an interview with Red Corner MMA.
