Subject of a call out from fellow unbeaten welterweight contender, Ian Garry overnight for a massive showdown at UFC 310 at the end of the year, surging finishing ace, Shavkat Rakhmonov claims a fight between himself and the Dubliner wouldn’t even “be close” if they actually share the Octagon.
Rakhmonov, who cracked the welterweight top-3 last December in another stoppage victory – to keep his finishing rate at 100%, made lightwork of former multi-time title challenger, Stephen Thompson with a second round rear-naked choke win at UFC 296.
