Quick read
Daniel Cormier has proposed that Islam Makhachev should face Carlos Prates rather than Ian Garry for his next title defense. Cormier argues that Prates's recent performance was far more impressive than what Makhachev did against Jack Della Maddalena. He suggests that Della Maddalena is not at the same level as Prates based on their respective showings. The post frames this as Cormier's opinion on the lightweight division matchmaking. No official UFC announcement or confirmation is mentioned.
