Daniel Cormier proposes Charles Oliveira vs. Ilia Topuria as Islam Makhachev pauses for Ramadan

Ilia Topuria has officially vacated his featherweight belt and moved to the lightweight division. Ever since his impressive knockout victory over Max Holloway at UFC 308, he has been calling out Islam Makhachev for a shot at the lightweight title.

However, Makhachev dismissed Topuria's callout, emphasizing that he needs to prove his worth by facing top lightweight contenders before earning a title shot.

Recently, Daniel Cormier proposed a matchup between 'Do Bronx' and ‘El Matador' on his YouTube channel. He emphasized the expected timeline for their return and highlighted Makhachev’s pause during Ramadan. He stated:

"You match up Topuria and Oliveira, and they fight relatively soon. Islam is in Ramadan, and they don’t want to fight during Ramadan. He doesn’t want to train during Ramadan. Obviously, you guys know that from sunrise to sunset, these guys can’t eat, can’t drink, and can’t take in anything. So training is almost impossible.”
