“I put him on a pedestal as the best fighter walking the planet right now… because that’s the person I want to beat.”
Ian Machado Garry isn’t holding back on respect ahead of his UFC 330 main event clash against Islam Makhachev. After bouncing back from his sole career defeat against Shavkat Rakhmonov with dominant wins over Carlos Prates and former champ Belal Muhammad, Garry has finally reached his moment of destiny.
Instead of traditional trash talk, Garry is using respect as motivation:
“I give him more respect than others because it’s earned and deserved. Islam is dangerous in every round… but when he steps across the octagon from me, I have my own plans.”
Will Garry fulfill his destiny and claim gold, or will Makhachev prove why he’s the P4P king?
