Matt Brown says that Islam Makhachev Ilia Topuria should avoid
Islam Makhachev could have a huge challenge, with Ilia Topuria chasing him for a shot to become a two-weight king.
However, Matt Brown does not believe that the Dagestani would be the honor of beating the Spanish-georgian, because he has already overcome a former featherweight title holder in the form of Alexander Volkanovski.
In an interview with MMA fights, he said: “If I am Islam Makhachev, I will not take that fight. I totally agree with what he said: “I don't have to fight against another inflated 145-ponder.” He has already done that. “
Brown then threw an interesting match-up for Topuria and exclaimed: “Let him fight there and earn his way to the title. Who does he fight? Charles Oliveira – F – Yes. “
Many agree with Brown's thoughts, including 'The American Gangster'. Chael Sonnen believes that Topuria Oliveira or Arman Tsarukyan should accept before he goes with Makhacheve in a blockbuster confrontation.
UFC Lightweight it says that the size does not matter when Ilia Topuria fights against Islam Makhachev
Later in the interview, Brown expressed the fear that Topuria might not have the size to compete with lightweight.
The American feared: “My first thought when I heard it was:” He is quite small for 155 pounds. He was not big before 145 pounds; I was surprised that he said he has a hard time making that weight. '
However, not everyone agrees with his opinion.
After he had heard some stories from Wilde Gym, a UFC star was convinced that Topuria could compete with Makhachev.
