Australian UFC welterweight champion Jack Della Maddalena has declared his intent to knock out Russian fighter Islam Makhachev in their upcoming bout at UFC 322.
I'm going to go for it. Obviously, that would be the best-case scenario. Get the finish. I can see it happening. I can see it blowing the roof off Madison Square Garden. Taking out the [former] pound-for-pound No.1 with no doubts. This would be the dream.
Della Maddalena last fought in May at UFC 315, defeating Belal Muhammad by unanimous decision to claim the UFC welterweight title. His record stands at 18 wins and 2 losses.
Makhachev last entered the Octagon in January at UFC 311, defeating Renato Moicano by first-round submission to defend his lightweight title. He then vacated the title and moved up to welterweight. His record is 27 wins and 1 loss.
