Islam Makhachev responds to Prates victory: 'Great work, Nutella cake'

Islam Makhachev reacted to Carlos Prates's recent victory with a lighthearted social media post, calling him "Nutella cake" in Russian. The comment appears to be a playful jab at Prates, though the specific context of the Nutella reference is unclear from the post. Makhachev's response suggests he is paying attention to Prates as a potential future opponent. The post does not indicate whether Makhachev is seriously interested in facing Prates or simply commenting on the performance. This social media interaction adds to the growing narrative around potential matchups for the lightweight champion.
