Russian lightweight UFC Islam Makhachev (18-1 MMA, 7-1 UFC) can not get a rating fighter to compete with him, thanks to which he could seriously advance in the race for the title of the 155-pound division.
Recently, Makhachev said on social networks that such fighters as Rafael Dos Anjos and Paul Felder refused to fight with him.
“Same problem again. RDA turned down the fight, Felder too “ – wrote the Russian fighter on Twitter.
