Russian mixed martial arts fighter Rasoul Mirzaev suggested that the UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev can surpass the achievements of the previous belt holder Khabib Nurmagomedova .
— Makhachev has everything ahead of him. He can go even higher (Khabib). He has it all. It’s growing. They have a serious school. It can even reach an average weight. Try it slowly. If I were him, I’d try. A life. The name is already written in history and it can be written several times. Islam has talent, he has everything. I’m interested in his fights with Charles Oliveira, Justin Gaethje, Dustin Poirier and Michael Chandler. Good four. It would be great if we organized a Grand Prix with them. He will then write his name even more in history and no one will have reason to doubt it. Victory in such a Grand Prix, and that’s it, he is the most legendary, “Mirzaev told Metaratings.ru
On October 21, Makhachev defeated Australian Alexander Volkanovski and defended the title. He has 25 victories and one defeat. Nurmagomedov finished his professional career in 2020. He remained undefeated inside the Octagon, where he had 29 victories in 29 fights.
