Jack Della Maddalena Downplays Size Advantage Ahead Of Islam Makhachev Fight

The welterweight champion dismissed claims that his size would give him an edge over Makhachev, saying the ex-lightweight champion might benefit more. “Cutting weight can take a lot out of you, so I expect the best version of him fresher, bigger, stronger,” Maddalena said, adding, “I’m a good-sized welterweight.” Maddalena vs. Makhachev takes place at UFC 322 on November 15.
