Quick read

Daniel Cormier has proposed that Carlos Prates would be a better opponent for Islam Makhachev than Ian Garry. Cormier explained that while Makhachev defeated Jack Della Maddalena and won the championship belt, his performance wasn't as impressive as what Prates accomplished against Della Maddalena. Cormier described Prates' victory as "absolute madness" and suggested that Della Maddalena simply doesn't match Prates' level. The post includes a poll asking fans whether Prates would be more interesting than Garry as Makhachev's next opponent, with one option noting that Prates has vulnerabilities in wrestling.
