Ian Machado Garry releases statement following UFC 330 loss to Islam Makhachev

Ian Machado Garry isn't beating himself up over his title fight loss to Islam Makhachev at UFC 330.

Saturday's main event ended with a familiar sight as Makhachev had his hand raised for the 17th straight time, breaking a tie with the legendary Anderson Silva for the longest consecutive win streak in company history. Makhachev earned a unanimous decision over Garry to successfully defend his welterweight title and maintain his status as the No. 1 pound-for-pound fighter in the world.

Despite the loss, Garry put on a competitive effort, and following the fight he took to Instagram to comment on his performance and how he's feeling in the aftermath.

“Tonight wasn't my night,†Garry said. “I feel great, I did great, Islam was just better than me tonight and that's OK. I want everybody who loves me and supports me and wants to see me do better, I want you to know that I'm going to be back.

“I'm not disheartened by this. I'm bulletproof in my mind. I'm 28 years of age, I just fought maybe the greatest fighter we've ever seen in this sport and I pushed him to the f*cking wire and I'm so proud of myself and I'm so proud of my team and everything that we've done. I'm so proud of what I've done in this world and who I've become. Nobody's stopping me. Tonight was not my night.â€

Garry loses for just the second time in 12 UFC appearances. He began his pro career 15-0, including wins in his first eight UFC fights. Following a loss to Shavkat Rakhmonov, Garry bounced back with decision victories over former welterweight champion Belal Muhammad and Carlos Prates to put himself into position for the UFC 330 title opportunity.

He closed out his social media message by praising Makhachev and his team, and promising he'll continue to evolve as he looks ahead to his next fight.

“Islam, your team, congratulations,†Garry said. “Your guys did amazing. I have nothing but love and respect for everything you guys have done in this sport, I said that to you. I'll be back. There's plenty of matchups in this sport, plenty of fun matchups that I'm excited for. We'll be back and we'll be better than ever. I love you all, let's go, baby.â€

Islam Makhachev respects Ian Machado Garry but all the hugs were too much at UFC 330: ‘This is a fight. This is not a game’

Islam Makhachev respects Ian Machado Garry but all the hugs were too much at UFC 330: ‘This is a fight. This is not a game’

Islam Makhachev respects all of his opponents, but that doesn't mean he needs to express those feelings at the beginning and end of every single round.

But that's exactly what Ian Machado Garry did on Saturday night as he was constantly shaking Makhachev's hand, hugging him or dapping him up during their fight. Garry apparently even offered words of encouragement at certain points during the five-round battle, and while Makhachev appreciated his opponen's graciousness, he wishes that was all saved until the UFC 330 fight was over.

“Honestly, I don't understand,†Makhachev said about Garry's actions during the UFC 330 post-fight press conference. “This is a fight. This is not something we have to hug each other every round. We're going to war. We're going to break the face, to break the eye. I respect all my opponents. But [maybe he's young]. He respects too much.

“I respect him. He's a good guy. Very kind. But this is a war. Look at my face. I just come to beat everything. It's not something you have to play. This is a fight. This is not a game.â€

While Garry's actions didn't change the result in the fight, Makhachev gave him credit for a job well done on Saturday night.

Throughout the 25 minute battle, Garry showcased solid takedown defense while stopping Makhchev from ever getting close to a potential submission.

That said, Makhachev was growing frustrated with Garry's refusal to really engage with him, which made it that much harder for him to set up grappling exchanges or other parts of his game plan he wanted to execute.

“Ian is a good opponent,†Makhachev said. “Very hard to fight with someone who stands and waits. He's just waiting and very hard to show a good performance with someone like that. He stands, I see his leg, I try to take him down. He has some good defense but very hard to show a good performance with someone like that.â€

Makhachev also said there were some slightly dirty moves happening in the octagon at UFC 330, especially when Garry apparently head butted him when they were battling for position on the ground.

When the fight ended, Makhachev realized that his nose was busted up and he believes that was a direct result of the blow Garry landed after they hit the ground during a takedown.

“He gave me too many scratches,†Makhachev said. “He gave me a very hard head butt at the end of the fourth round when I made him slam, you can see he gave me a back head butt. In the fight, I don't remember when my nose is bleeding and right away the blood is coming out. I thought maybe I broke the nose or something.

“He gave me a very hard head butt. It's OK. Hard fight. It makes you improve and I feel I improved.â€

As far as the future goes, Makhachev isn't slowing down or capping how many more fights he might have before retirement. Instead, the reigning UFC welterweight champion is already thinking about how he can get better from this performance and prepare for his next opponent as soon as he's healthy and ready to go again.

“I still have to gain some weight, try to be more big, more power and I have time,†Makhachev said. “What this fight showed me and showed everybody, it's not my hardest fight. It doesn't matter how this fight is going to go, easy or hard, from the first minute to the last minute to the last second, I'm going to war. I'm going to fight every second.â€

Ian Machado Garry lectures Michael Morales backstage at UFC 330: ‘The shit you talk… make sure you back it up’

Ian Machado Garry lectures Michael Morales backstage at UFC 330: ‘The shit you talk… make sure you back it up’

Ian Machado Garry went five hard rounds with Islam Makhachev at UFC 330, and afterwards, he still had enough energy to have a stern chat with Michael Morales.

The welterweight contenders had a backstage encounter following Garry's title fight loss to Makhachev, and Garry appeared to take umbrage with past comments Morales made about him.

Watch the exchange below, courtesy of Full Send MMA.

“All the shit you talk, it's OK,†Garry said. “Make sure you back it up. I don't know whatever story you made up about meeting me, I've never encountered that sort, you know that, right?

“Listen, you're a good fighter. Show up, keep winning, and you can do anything. Does that make sense? You've got massive fights in this division. You've got me, you've got [Carlos] Prates, you've got Islam. Show up and fight. Does that make sense? You're an animal. You're strong.â€

Morales has been a popular choice to fight Islam in the near future, with the Ecuadorian standout sporting a spotless 19-0 record, including seven wins in the UFC. His past three wins have been dominant first-round knockouts over veterans Sean Brady, Gilbert Burns, and Neil Magny.

However, Morales hasn't fought since November, so he likely has more work to do before getting his crack at Makhachev. Garry, in his unique way, appears to be supportive of Morales.

“I don't know about any story where I've met you and I've talked shit to you,†Garry said. “In this sport, people talk shit, I ignore it. You're a good fighter. You're young, you're strong up here, and that means you can do anything. Spread good, do good. You knock people out, you beat people up, that's what gets respect.â€
