Beneil Dariush offered his perspective on Ilia Topuria's decision to fight Justin Gaethje instead of Islam Makhachev. According to Dariush, Topuria viewed the Gaethje fight primarily as a money-making opportunity and selected it because developing a game plan for Gaethje is much simpler than preparing for Makhachev. Dariush believes Topuria did not have a clear strategic plan for facing Makhachev, which influenced his choice.
