Its Ramadan time for muslims, where they don't eat anything for a month. You can therefore see there is no muslim fighter in ufc300, be it islam, khamzat, shavkat rakhmonov or any other. Go see the latest islam interview where he explains that he is so disappointed that he is unable to fight in ufc 300. He even said he requested ufc if they could push this event for 2 weeks, but ufc denied.

100%, or at least is what i believe after watching them fight, i think Illia has good boxing, but i dont believe he can catch Usman by any means. I will explain my self, even thou i think Illia has good skills that make him a danger for all his division, he is a legit black belt, he is good at wrestling an what i think he does better is boxing. Once said that i also think Usman has a more solid wrestling base and moves better inside that cage, not to say that if they clinch Ilia has 0 chance. Further than in bad position like mounted, i cant see Usman getting beated.
