“A few years ago I said that Makhachev would become the UFC champion” – Finkelstein

promoter Vadim Finkelstein told RT that he had long predicted a Russian fighter Islam Makhachev victory in the title fight in the UFC.

On Saturday, Makhachev defeated Brazilian Charles Oliveira and won the lightweight championship belt.

– I had no doubts about Makhachev’s success. It is quite possible to call him the second Khabib. You can smell his school. I know Islam well, because he had four fights in my M-1. Frankly, a few years ago he said: he will be the champion of the UFC.
