UFC lightweight Michael Chandler spoke about the fight between Ilia Topuria and Justin Gaethje.

"If you rewatch Gaethje's fights with Dustin Poirier, Gaethje with me, Gaethje with Tony Ferguson, matches where classic striker faces classic striker, with quite similar movement styles, he can show a much more technical performance there.

At the same time, Ilia Topuria is undoubtedly the most talented and most dangerous fighter in all of UFC. So the task ahead is extremely challenging. He will act a little more cautiously, and that will only benefit Gaethje," Chandler's words are quoted by MMAJunkie.
