Fight with an American Dustin Poirier will be for the UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhacheva the easiest of his career, RCC fighter Boris Medvedev told .
The fight between Makhachev and Poirier will take place on June 1 at UFC 302 in New Jersey (USA). Poirier, 35, has 30 victories and eight defeats. Makhachev, 32, has 25 victories and one defeat.
— I think it’s not a competitive fight at all. For Makhachev, this will be the easiest fight of his career, because all Poirier has is his guillotine. Yes, he has good boxing, but after Makhachev holds him down, Poirier will get hammered and will no longer be able to box as well as he has boxed in other stand-up fights. So there will be an unconditional victory for Makhachev. Poirier is clearly an outsider,” Medvedev told .
The UFC 302 tournament will be broadcast live on the channel, the broadcast will begin on Sunday evening at 05:00 (Moscow time). Broadcast on “Match! Fighter” begins at 1:55 a.m. (Moscow time).
