Charles of the Bronx is not among the main risks for the reign of Islam makhachev in light weight (up to 70,3 kg). At least not in the opinion of the former light heavyweight (up to 93 kg) and heavyweight (120,2 kg) champion Daniel Cormier.
In conversation with journalist Brett Okamoto and bantamweight (up to 120,2 kg) Cory Sandhagen em video published on its official YouTube channel, Daniel Cormier did not mention the Brazilian when pointing out the most dangerous opponents for the current champion in the category. Instead, 'DC' chose two European promises.

“I think all fights are tough, but he (Makhachev) is good, man. Sincerely, Arman Tsarukyan ou Mateusz gamrot, I think these two are the most difficult marriages for him”, pointed out the commentator.
First name mentioned by Cormier, Arman Tsarukyan is precisely the next rival of Charles of the Bronx in the octagon. The two face each other on the main card of UFC 300, on April 13th, in Las Vegas, in the United States. The naturalized Russian Armenian is fourth in the ranking.
Mateusz gamrot, in turn, occupies fifth position in the category. The Pole is coming off a victory over the former champion Rafael dos Anjos No. UFC 299, held on March 9, in Miami, United States.
With two lightweight belt defenses, both against the former featherweight champion (up to 65,7 kg) Alexander Volkanovsky, Islam makhachev must not have Tsarukyan, Gamrot and not even Charles of the Bronx as next challengers. The tendency is for the Russian to defend his title against Dustin poirier in June.
