Islam Makhachev: I'm the best in the world at 155 \n\n Yet Makhachev took the news matter-of-factly, as he plans on defeating whoever lines up across from him. When you're the best in the world, who cares who's the opponent?  said Makhachev. I don't care who my opponent is. I'm the best in the world at 155.

I remember saying to him after the last fight, I just said to him, 'Get out of my division. Stop beating up my contenders,' I'm saying stuff like that to him,  Volkanovski told The Mac Life (h/t MMA Mania). A lot of people are gonna sit there, before last [Saturday] night, 'Oh, he's fallen off' and all this stuff.
