Islam Makhachev posts photo with Ramazan Kuramagomedov, claims welterweight division

UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev posted a photo on social media with Ramazan Kuramagomedov, accompanied by the caption "The welterweight division belongs to us." The post suggests a connection between the two fighters and indicates confidence about Dagestani representation in the welterweight division. The statement appears to be a bold claim of dominance, though it is unclear whether this relates to actual plans for Makhachev to move up to welterweight or is simply expressing support for teammates. The post was characterized as a "powerful tandem" by the channel sharing it.
