UFC`s top-ranked lightweight contender, Arman Tsarukyan, shared his prediction regarding a potential fight between the current Lightweight champion, Islam Makhachev, and the reigning Featherweight champion, Ilia Topuria.
Tsarukyan offered a clear forecast for the hypothetical matchup:
Arman Tsarukyan:
“Islam Makhachev would defeat Ilia Topuria via technical knockout. Islam is a different caliber of fighter. You cannot compare him to Ilia.”
It is also worth noting that Makhachev has recently moved up to the welterweight division and is reportedly awaiting a fight against Jack Della Maddalena.
