Carlos Prates and Ian Garry plan title fight if both win next bouts

Carlos Prates revealed a collaborative plan he discussed with Ian Garry approximately three weeks ago. According to the plan, Prates would defeat Maddalena while Garry would defeat Makhachev, setting up a title fight between them in Brazil. Prates believes the UFC would make this matchup happen. If Garry captures the belt, Prates anticipates it would be a rematch between them. The post notes skepticism about whether this ambitious plan will come to fruition.
