UFC commentator questions ‘unentertaining’ label surrounding Islam Makhachev and Khamzat Chimaev

Jon Anik has shared his opinion on the recent performances of Khamzat Chimaev and Islam Makhachev. The UFC commentator cannot understand how some fans found those bouts unentertaining.

Chimaev dethroned Dricus du Plessis at UFC 319 by unanimous decision. The title fight was a one-sided affair, as ‘Borz’ had a control time of 21 minutes and 40 seconds, secured 12 takedowns, and had landed 529 strikes overall.

On the other hand, Islam Makhachev, who moved up to welterweight earlier this year, made his divisional debut at UFC 322 against Jack Della Maddalena.
