A discussion has emerged regarding who should be Islam Makhachev's next opponent, with journalist Igor suggesting Ian Garry followed by Carlos Prates as the ideal sequence. The reasoning centers on the compelling narratives and conflicts associated with both potential matchups, as well as the sporting competitiveness and danger they would present to Makhachev. Igor argues that fans want to see rivalry and tension outside the cage, which both Garry and Prates would deliver. He notes that Movsar Evloev does not generate the same level of excitement or media buzz. The post invites audience input on who they believe should be next for the lightweight champion.
