Quick read

Islam Makhachev confirmed that he has started his training camp for his next fight and that an opponent has been verbally agreed upon. The post does not explicitly name the opponent but appears to question whether it will be Ian Garry or if there are other possibilities. No official announcement has been made by the UFC, and no date or location for the fight has been mentioned. This represents confirmation from the champion himself that preparations are underway for his next title defense. The brief nature of the post leaves most details unconfirmed.
