A discussion has emerged about who should be Islam Makhachev's next opponent, with Ian Garry and Carlos Prates being the primary candidates. The post author suggests Garry first, followed by Prates, noting that both matchups would create conflict and generate significant buzz outside the cage. These fights are described as competitively viable and dangerous for Makhachev. The author notes that audiences want to see rivalry and pre-fight hype, which both potential opponents would deliver. Vicente Luque (Morales) is mentioned as not generating the same level of excitement. The post invites reader input on the preferred opponent order.
