UFC Light-weight Champion Islam Makhachev is on the trail to greatness and a report for probably the most consecutive wins within the league, the ASA heavyweight champion advised Match TV Evgeny Goncharov.
Makhachev defeated American Dustin Poirier by choke within the fifth spherical on the UFC 302 match in Newark, America, and defended his light-weight belt.
Makhachev received his 14th straight victory within the UFC and surpassed the achievement of Khabib Nurmagomedov, who retired on a streak of 13 victories within the league.
“I actually appreciated the battle, I actually appreciated Islam’s efficiency. Sure, and Poirier was stunned at the moment by how he defended himself from the battle. He had superb preparation; Poirier didn’t enable himself to be submitted within the first spherical. However Islam on this cool battle confirmed why he’s the champion and primary P4P (whatever the weight class – approx.). I imagine that Islam Makhachev is on the trail to greatness, and 14 victories in a row within the UFC talk about this. I imagine that Islam ought to break the report of Anderson Silva, who had 16 victories. I believe Islam could make 17-18 and finish his profession,” Goncharov advised Match TV.
