It’s too handy. It was too particular. I’m saying it publicly. My thought is … whereas Hunter was [in Dagestan] to satisfy Islam, guess who else Rizvan Magomedov manages? Ankalaev!
“He additionally manages Ankalaev! So whereas [Hunter] is in Dagestan talking with Islam concerning the [Ilia Topuria] combat — bear in mind, we nonetheless ain’t bought a most important occasion for Worldwide Combat Week — that’s a brief interval away, so [Hunter] goes, ‘What about you, Ankalaev, are you obtainable?’ Ankalaev is like, ‘Okay, I may combat.’”

So sure, whereas Hunter was in Dagestan, I believe it was a two-for-one name. I believe he spoke to Magomed and he spoke to Islam. I don’t know this as reality, however I do know this recreation sufficient to place that collectively and really feel fairly confidently to say it on ESPN.”
