American mixed martial arts veteran Nate Diaz has expressed that UFC welterweight champion Leon Edwards is currently the best fighter in the promotion.
Renowned American boxer Ryan Garcia gave his prediction for his upcoming fight with Devin Haney, WBC Welterweight Champion of the World.
"I'm fast. I'm strong. You've seen how it works. I can do it all day long. I'm hugely motivated and I'm ready to destroy this motherfucker. I've seen all kinds of shit I shouldn't have seen, but now I'm a killer. I know I'm gonna win. You guys can't even play ping pong when you're dehydrated, let alone fight in front of millions of people. Fact. This is gonna be a great show. I got something planned for you guys. I'm talking about my coming out, the performance, the theatrics, and then the ring. It's going to be an interesting first round. I'm going to feel him out, see what he's doing and then I'm going to start hitting him. After 30 seconds, he'll be knocked out. In the second round, I'll knock him the hell out and we'll all go to the party," BoxingScene quoted Garcia as saying.

Former UFC lightweight champion Charles Oliveira admitted that at the end of the third round of the fight against Arman Tsarukyan he was celebrating victory.
Recall that the Brazilian caught the Armenian in a tight D'Arce choke hold, but the latter was saved by the final gong.
"There were 30 seconds left. The choke was very tight. Plus, I like that hold. I thought he was passed out, so I even showed my tongue. I was getting excited already. But that's part of fighting, too. My win wasn't meant to be. I threw a guillotine in the first round. I don't miss that position. But Arman is very resilient," - quotes Oliveira MMA Fighting.
Recall, on April 13 at UFC 300 in Las Vegas, USA, Oliveira lost to Tsarukyan by split decision.

Chael Sonnen, former UFC fighter and current commentator and analyst, revealed under what condition the organization's current bantamweight champion Alex Pereira could become the greatest fighter of all time.
"Pereira has had 12 fights in mixed martial arts. Only eight of those have been in the UFC, but in those eight fights he has won middleweight and bantamweight championship belts and defeated five champions. If Pereira, who has never competed in wrestling or grappling, becomes heavyweight champion, we will step aside and say he is the greatest MMA fighter of all time," Sonnen said.
Recall, in his last fight Pereira already in the first round knocked out Jamal Hill.
