“If not ahead of schedule, then by the decision of the judges, Nurmagomedov would have taken the upper hand in the battle with Makhachev” – Grebnev
AMC Fight Nights fighter Alexander Grebnev believes that Khabib Nurmagomedov would have defeated Islam Makhachev in a full-time fight.
– Personally, I still bet on Nurmagomedov. In my opinion, Khabib would crush Makhachev. Maybe he wouldn’t have dominated this fight like he had in the previous ones, but he would have been constantly moving forward and applying pressure. It would be very interesting to see their sparring, how they fight. If Islam is able to rise from under it, then it may have a chance. But it seems to me that in functional terms, the Eagle is a little better. This would be the key factor. If not ahead of schedule, then by the decision of the judges, he would have taken over, RT quotes Grebnev.
On October 22, Makhachev defeated the Brazilian Charles Oliveira by choke in the title fight at the UFC 280 tournament in Abu Dhabi.
