New script turn in the UFC. The UFC lightweight champion, Islam Makhachev, has broken his silence to make his position clear, advised by his representation team, headed by Ali Abdelaziz. The Daguestaní was between the sword and the wall, because the largest mixed martial arts league (MMA) of the world is no longer allowing its champions to sit down with their titles and continue the division creating interim belts. However, the door has been open again. Let’s see. As ABC MMA advanced, finally Makhachev is waiting to see what happens in the stellar combat of the UFC 315, which is celebrated this Saturday in Canada, and in which the welter weight champion, Belal Muhammad, defends his belt before the Australian Jack Della Maddalena. Because? Well, because Makhachev, before defending his title against Ilia Topuria, who has already assured him that he will play it at the International Fight Week, he prefers to seek to enlarge his legacy by climbing from the light to the Wélter A for the shot of the world title. An information confirmed this Friday Makhachev through ‘X’, leaving a blunt message, will not leave its vacancy even if it goes up to the wélter. «This Saturday’s main fight will define my next step. But regardless of the result of that fight, I will not give up my lightweight title! We could meet a true contender! ” , the Russian has pointed out. And that opens a new scenario that seemed, according to our sources, discarded. Related standard notar Jack Della Maddallena, the man who can end the Topuria VS Makhachev Álvaro Colmenero fight The Australian will face the Wélter weight champion of the UFC, bellal, bellummadcomo makhachev will not fight against Muhammad, because they are friends, in case the Wélter champion is. Daguestaní will fight against Ilia Topuria for the title of the light weight that it holds. In the event that it is Della Maddalena who comes that lawsuit, Makhachev would take the opportunity to climb the wélter to try to conquer a second belt, as is doing Topuria, which abandoned the pen to climb the light. But there is a notable difference. The Russian does not want to release his title. In case the UFC allowed Makhachev to pull gallons, and did not strip him of the light belt, a new scenario would appear, ‘The path of the middle’. That would mean that Makhachev rests its undisputed title on the light weight while assaulting the wélter, and the UFC would create an interim belt, which would play Ilia Topuria and Charles Oliveira in the International Fight Week, on June 28. However, that would break the UFC pattern in recent times, through which they only use the interim when a champion is injured, since in this case Makhachev would not be injured. We will leave doubts shortly.
