UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev was robbed during a trip to Italy, with thieves stealing his luggage containing autographed boots from Georgian soccer star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The theft also included Makhachev's passport, though it was later returned to him. Details about when and where exactly the robbery occurred remain limited in the initial report. Makhachev had apparently been gifted or obtained the boots from Kvaratskhelia, one of Europe's top soccer talents who plays for Napoli and the Georgian national team. The incident occurred while Makhachev was traveling in Italy, though the specific circumstances of the theft were not elaborated upon in the post.
