Robert Whittaker: There's 'Skill Gap' Between Islam Makhachev, Arman Tsarukyan
"I understand how good Arman Tsarukyan is, but I just feel like if we look at Islam's last fight with Dustin and we look at Arman's last fight with Charles, I just feel like there's a skill gap." He continues, "And everyone's saying how well Arman went in his debut, short notice etc., etc. But you look at the names, you look at the level of fights, you look at the stage that Islam's fight was set on, I don't know, I just see ... Islam's in a really good place right now. I find it very hard to see him getting defeated."
