Beneil Dariush says Topuria chose Gaethje over Makhachev due to easier gameplan

Beneil Dariush shared his thoughts on why Ilia Topuria chose to fight Justin Gaethje instead of Islam Makhachev. Dariush believes Topuria viewed the Gaethje fight as a money opportunity and that preparing a gameplan for Gaethje is much simpler compared to Makhachev. According to Dariush, Topuria did not have a clear strategy for facing Makhachev, which influenced his decision to take the Gaethje matchup instead.
