Khabib Nurmagomedov wants to see his protege, Islam Makhachev, challenge for the UFC Lightweight title as soon as the Charles Oliveira vs. Justin Gaethje fight is completed.




"He's a cleaner striker than Khabib is,"  retired mixed martial artist and commentator Kenny Florian explained why fighters can't relax. 

"[Islam Makhachev's] got skills on the feet too and he's a cleaner striker than say [Khabib Nurmagomedov] is. Except he has those Khabib type grappling skills. So you can't relax with someone like Islam on the outside. You just can't. Like, he's a threat with his striking and you know he's gonna get on the inside, get in on those legs or get to a clinch and he's gonna throw you on your head and from there you really don't get up."

SportsBetting.ag set odds for the pair of potential matches, and Makhachev is a massive favorite against both competitors.
