Quick read
Carlos Prates now has additional talking points against Islam Makhachev after finishing Jack Della Maddalena, whom Makhachev previously defeated but did not stop. This gives Prates ammunition to claim he 'finished what Makhachev couldn't.' The post notes that Makhachev now has multiple potential media-driven opponents creating storylines, with Ian Garry and Shavkat Rakhmonov not being the only ones generating pre-fight narratives. Details are limited but the implication is that Prates can now more credibly call out the lightweight champion.
