Beneil Dariush: Topuria chose Gaethje over Makhachev due to easier game plan

Beneil Dariush shared his perspective on why Ilia Topuria chose to fight Justin Gaethje instead of Islam Makhachev. Dariush believes Topuria viewed the Gaethje fight as a money-making opportunity and that preparing a game plan for Gaethje is significantly easier than developing one for Makhachev. According to Dariush, Topuria lacked a clear plan for facing Makhachev, which influenced his decision to pursue the Gaethje matchup instead.
