Duel between Islam Makhachev And Arman Tsarukyan will be a battle of psychology, and in the fight between UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev and Dustin Poirier the result is more obvious, the Russian fighter told Ivan Shtyrkov .
Russian fighter of Armenian origin Tsarukyan defeated Brazilian Charles Oliveira by split decision at the UFC 300 tournament in Las Vegas (USA). Earlier, UFC head Dana White said that the winner of the fight should meet Makhachev, who previously defeated Tsarukyan and Oliveira. At the same time, it was announced that Makhachev would meet with American Dustin Poirier on June 1.
— Oliveira gave Armand a good fight. And that’s good for Armand – before the title fight you need a competitive fight, testing all your weaknesses. Even if we compare Oliveira’s fights against Islam and against Armand, which were completely different, it is not worth predicting the outcome of the future title fight. The showdown between Islam and Arman has history, the two fighters on the best team – it won’t just be a cage battle, it will be a battle of psychology. A fight is now scheduled there: Makhachev against Poirier. But here is a more obvious result,” Chtyrkov told .
