Having wins over these two isn't talked about enough. Man ended Volk's 22 fight win streak, derailed Oliveira's 11 fight win streak and title momentum, all in the span of 4 months.
If Dariush manages to win this and then face Makhachev, Makhachev would've faced opponets with a combined winstreak of 35 in his past 3 bouts. Unheard of in the UFC.
I hope Makhachev fights the winner of Gaethje-Poirier tbh. This division needs circulation. Plus beating Olives again would make the haters say "he beat the guy he already beat" and other excuses.
