Preparing for the main fight of his career, Russian lightweight Islam Makhachev spares neither himself nor his training partners.
During the filming of another video blog about the preparation of a Russian fighter, an episode was captured on video where Makhachev puts his sparring partner to sleep with a choke hold, and both do not immediately understand what happened.
Whether the Russian will be able to finish Charles Oliveira and become the new UFC lightweight champion with this technique, we will find out on October 22, when the fight of the top lightweights will head the UFC 280 tournament in Abu Dhabi.
Despite the fact that the Brazilian is the de facto champion, the Russian will enter the octagon as a more than two-time favorite, and the best fighter in the world, regardless of the weight category, Alexander Volkanovski, will insure the title confrontation.
