"Islam. Because he is more well-rounded. And he has Khabib in his corner,"
"Abdulmanap had correctly predicted that Makhachev would take over the UFC lightweight division after his son, Khabib's retirement."
Arman Tsarukyan expressed confidence that Islam Makhachev would defeat Khabib Nurmagomedov in a potential fight. He cited Makhachev's well-rounded skill set and the advantage of having Nurmagomedov in his corner. Both fighters are lifelong friends and teammates, with Makhachev becoming the lightweight champion after Nurmagomedov's retirement. Tsarukyan, who lost to Makhachev in his UFC debut, has since established himself as a top contender but faced setbacks due to injuries and has been sidelined from the title picture despite recent victories.
