Ian Machado Garry has said he is “already thinking” about whom to defend the UFC welterweight ***** le against – before even fighting for the belt.
On 15 August, the Irishman will challenge champion Islam Makhachev, as the pair headline UFC 330 in Philadelphia.
The bout marks Makhachev’s first defence of the belt, although he broke the record for most lightweight-title defences before moving up to welterweight in November.
When it came time to challenge for the welterweight strap, Makhachev employed his wrestling skillset to dominate Jack Della Maddalena and win on points at Madison Square Garden, in New York City.
The result was the Russian’s 16th win in a row since his sole professional loss, while Machado Garry also has a single defeat to his name.
