Makhachev said that because of his popularity it is now difficult for him to walk around Makhachkala
The champion of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in lightweight weight, Russian Islam Makhachev, spoke about his increased popularity in Makhachkala. He told Match TV about this.
“Is it difficult to walk around Makhachkala now? Yes! I wanted it to be easy, because I love my city, I like to take a walk where I grew up,” the fighter said.
Earlier, Makhachev said that Irishman Conor McGregor does not deserve to fight him. “If he deserves it, comes back, wins a few fights, then why not?” – said the Russian.
On October 21, Makhachev defended his UFC lightweight title for the second time. The Russian knocked out Australian Alexander Volkanovski in the first round. In total, 32-year-old Makhachev had 26 fights in his career, in which he won 25 victories, losing only once.
