Carlos Prates and Ian Garry plan future title fight in Brazil

Carlos Prates revealed that he and Ian Garry have discussed a plan to eventually meet in a welterweight title fight. According to Prates, Garry called him approximately three weeks ago to outline the scenario: Prates would defeat Gilbert Burns (referred to as Maddalena in the post), Garry would defeat Islam Makhachev, and then the two would fight for the title in Brazil. Prates believes the UFC would make this fight happen and suggested it could serve as a rematch if Garry wins the championship. The plan is highly speculative given both fighters' current positions in their respective divisions and the fact that Garry would need to move up in weight to challenge Makhachev.
