The interim UFC lightweight champion, American Justin Gatzhi, commented on the news that his fight with the belt holder, Russian Khabib Nurmagomedov, will take place on October 24. Earlier this was announced by UFC President Dana white. Almost all of Khabib's recent rivals are fighters who prefer to fight in a stand. With a stretch a good Grappler can be called unless Al Iaquinta but his Habib easily translated to earth and completely in control. Yaquinta went through all five rounds with Khabib but lost handily and without a single chance, the score of the match is 50-44, 50-43, 50-43. The Dagestani held 8 takedowns, and struck 51 blows, being in the stalls (yakvinta none!). Complete dominance for all 25 minutes of the fight. But many people call this fight the most difficult for many years of performances of the Dagestani eagle in the UFC (there was still a difficult fight with Tibau in 2012).
