American mixed martial arts fighter Aaron Pico, recently signed with the UFC, shared his thoughts on a hypothetical fight between lightweight champion Islam Makhachev and former featherweight title contender Ilia Topuria.

Pico stated, “I think this matchup is great for the sport. Fans are eager to see Makhachev and Topuria clash due to their contrasting styles. However, in my opinion, Islam is simply too skilled for Topuria. Despite this, I`m a fan of the potential fight and would love to see it happen.”
