Uros Medic rips Ian Machado Garry for saying world would be better if ‘run by women’

Uros Medic disagrees with Ian Machado Garry, and believes the upcoming welterweight title challenger will have a long night at the office.

For Medic, he's set to face Daniel Rodriguez in the main event of Saturday's UFC Belgrade card. Two weeks later, Garry challenges Islam Makhachev for the welterweight title in the headliner of UFC 330 in Philadelphia.

Garry recently did an interview with High Performance and said that world would be a better place if it were run by women, mostly shouting out his wife and her influence on him.

“If the world was run by women, we'd all live in a better world,†Machado Garry said. “It would all be simpler and easier. That's the fact of the matter—whether you want to agree with it or not. If women ruled the world, and we just listened to them and let them take over, it would be an easier world.â€

When asked his opinion on the Makhachev vs. Garry fight, Medic turned his attention to Garry's comments.

“Obviously he's been very vocal lately about women running the world, and I just had a message for him,†Medic told MMA Fighting. “Just because his woman is running his world, it doesn't mean that women should run all the world, because men built the world. They've gave the rights to women, and they maintain the safety and freedom [of] everybody.

“So if he wants to have his world ran by women, I have no problem with that. Just don't try to impose none of that bullshit on me.â€

Makhachev defends his second divisional title for the first time since dominating Jack Della Maddalena at UFC 322 this past November to win the belt. The top pound-for-pound fighter in MMA Fighting's Global Rankings has won 16 fights in a row, including four title defenses as lightweight champ.

It's Makhachev's domination and style that leads Medic to believe it will be a great night for the Khabib Nurmagomedov-trained fighter.

“I think Islam Mahachev will finish Ian Garry in less than three rounds,†Medic said. “It'll be interesting to watch for sure. Ian is lanky, and he's the type of fighter that runs and tries to score points, and then gets a split decision somehow.â€

Merab Dvalishvili calls himself a 'decision machine' before Yan trilogy
Merab
Dvalishvili can joke about his low finishing rate in the

Ultimate Fighting Championship.

Dvalishvili is scheduled to challenge Petr Yan for
the bantamweight title in a trilogy bout at
UFC 333 on Oct. 24 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. When a fan
recently asked him to predict the outcome, the former champion
jokingly suggested another decision victory.

Merab Dvalishvili jokes about his decision-heavy record ahead
of Petr Yan title fight at UFC 333

Dvalishvili is known for his relentless pressure and wrestling,
with 16 of his 21 career victories coming by decision. The Georgian
has recorded two finishes in the UFC: a technical knockout of
Marlon
Moraes in 2021 and a submission of Sean
O’Malley in his second title defense last year.

Asked how he would beat Yan, Dvalishvili described himself as a
“decision machine.â€

“There are three ways to win: knockout, submission, or decision,â€
Dvalishvili said in a brief
interview. “I’m a decision machine.â€

10 UFC wins, zero finishes: Movsar Evloev defends his fighting style

10 UFC wins, zero finishes: Movsar Evloev defends his fighting style
Movsar
Evloev rejects the notion that fans only want bloody
fights.

Evloev is scheduled to challenge Alexander
Volkanovski for the
Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title at
UFC 333 on Oct. 24 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. The Russian
challenger has won all 10 of his UFC bouts by decision but believes
fans appreciate his fighting style.

Movsar Evloev argues wrestling can entertain UFC fans ahead of
Volkanovski title fight

The recent departures of Michael
Page and Farid
Basharat have fueled debate about whether winning is enough to
secure a new UFC contract. Neither fighter was re-signed despite a
winning streak, though a lack of finishes has not been established
as the reason for either departure.

Evloev believes finishes are not the only measure of a fighter's
value. He says fans also appreciate tactics, skill and
wrestling.

“I have zero finishes in UFC, but I'm still in the UFC and I'm
fighting for the title,†Evloev told MMA Fighting. “That means only
finishes are not important. To show a good fight is also important.
If you have no finish, you can still show a good fight, an exciting
fight; you can show the beauty of wrestling. There are not just
fans of MMA who just wait for blood. There are so many good fans
who know MMA, and they understand, and maybe because of them I'm
still in the UFC.â€

Undefeated fighter blasts UFC, Dana White for creating ‘bullsh*t narrative’ around Farid Basharat release

Undefeated fighter blasts UFC, Dana White for creating ‘bullsh*t narrative’ around Farid Basharat release

Muhammad Mokaev knows how it feels to win in the octagon and still lose with the UFC.

In 2024, Mokaev experienced a similar rift despite having zero losses on his record, and he is now taking aim at White and the UFC's practices in defense of Basharat.

“When fighters are getting phone calls from bosses telling them, ‘If you keep wrestling like that, you're going to get cut,' then you're basically telling fighters how you want them to fight,†Mokaev wrote on Twitter. “At what point does that cross the line? Isn't that influencing the competition?

“And if you want to release a fighter, fine. But don't then publicly say he was ‘hard to deal with' or create some bullshit narrative about him that could damage his reputation and make other organizations think twice about signing him. Release fighters if you want. Just don't try to damage their careers on the way out.â€

Like Basharat, Mokaev employed a wrestling-heavy style that didn't always produce thrilling back-and-forth contests (though Mokaev did score submission victories in four of his seven UFC wins). The nail in the coffin for Mokaev was a disappointing decision win over Manel Kape at UFC 304, where both men produced little meaningful offense. Making matters worse, Mokaev and Kape had an altercation during fight week, with Mokaev admitting he threw the first punch.

Mokaev is 4-0 since parting ways with the UFC, having finished three of his past four opponents, but remains on the outside looking in with his competition going mostly unrecognized by fans in North America. The 26-year-old is currently No. 7 at 125 pounds in the MMA Fighting Global Rankings.
