Following his finish of Jack Della Maddalena, Carlos Prates is now in position to call out Islam Makhachev, pointing out that he "was able to finish Maddalena" where Makhachev could not. The post notes that Makhachev now has multiple potential media-friendly opponents creating storylines. Ian Garry and Vicente Luque (Morales) are mentioned as other fighters in the conversation. The commentary suggests Prates' victory gives him legitimate grounds for challenging the lightweight champion. Details about specific callouts or responses are limited in the post.
