must be Islam [Makhachev], Charles [Oliveira] and [Arman]
Tsarukyan. If Khabib was nonetheless lively, I’d put him in first
place.”

light-weight gold within the UFC 311 headliner. Whereas they’re from the
similar health club, Carneiro revealed that he didn’t work with Tsarukyan this

the nod over Makhachev.

larger, heavier and has a greater wrestling talent, so I feel he’s
the favourite,” Carneiro mentioned. “However in a five-round MMA struggle,
something can occur. Arman did his homework and is coming in nice
form and might shock the champion.”
