Carlos
\nPrates<\/a> has fired back at Islam
\nMakhachev<\/a>\u2019s manager, Ali Abdelaziz.<\/p>\n

Prates had hoped to challenge Makhachev for the undisputed
\nUltimate Fighting Championship<\/a> welterweight title in January.
\nInstead, the Brazilian will face Michael
\nMorales<\/a> for the interim belt at UFC
\n336<\/a> on Jan. 30 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.<\/p>\n

Carlos Prates challenges Ali Abdelaziz’s defense of Islam
\nMakhachev ahead of UFC 336<\/h2>\n

Prates has repeatedly criticized Makhachev on social media,
\naccusing the champion of avoiding him. Abdelaziz recently addressed
\nthe welterweight contenders collectively, claiming none would add
\nto Makhachev\u2019s legacy.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re a contender. Islam is the champion and maybe the
\ngreatest fighter of this generation,\u201d Abdelaziz wrote on X. \u201cTalk
\nless, because he\u2019ll make you look bad. None of you add to his
\nlegacy. He fights for passion, love of the sport, and the
\nfans.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prates countered that Makhachev would have accepted the January
\nmatchup if passion were his motivation. \u201cThe Nightmare\u201d also vowed
\nto end the Russian\u2019s legacy rather than enhance it.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf he fights for passion, he would fight the number 1 contender in
\nJanuary,\u201d Prates replied. \u201cI will not add anything on his legacy, I
\nwill finish his legacy brother, and also, he will make me look
\ngreat. Mark my words.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If he fights for passion , he would fight
\nthe number 1 contender in January . I will not add anything on his
\nlegacy , I will finish his legacy brother , and also , he will make
\nme look great . Mark my words \u270d\ud83c\udffe<\/p>\n
