Javier Mendes, the coach of UFC welterweight champion Islam Makhachev, does not consider Ian Harry the most difficult opponent for his ward.

"Ian is capable of challenging anyone since he is in the top 5 best welterweights. Do I consider him a more difficult opponent for Islam than Kamaru? No, I don't, because Harry does not have the same level of wrestling as Kamaru."
