The fight everyone’s been waiting for just got even hotter! Shavkat Rakhmonov claims he already choked out Ian Garry in training—yet the footage that matters was conveniently left out. Is Garry hiding the truth, or is Rakhmonov just playing mind games before their massive showdown at UFC 310? Get ready for an explosive showdown where everything’s on the line!
Shavkat Rakhmonov Claims He Submitted Ian Garry in Sparring: What Didn’t They Show?
Shavkat Rakhmonov has dropped a bombshell ahead of his highly anticipated fight against Ian Machado Garry at UFC 310. In a recent interview, Rakhmonov boldly stated that he submitted Garry during a sparring session, leaving fans and analysts buzzing. Rakhmonov, known for his lethal skills in the welterweight division, revealed that he applied a choke that forced Garry to tap out. However, he raised an eyebrow over the selective footage released by Garry, claiming that the part where he secured the submission was conveniently omitted.
The Training Session That Didn’t Make the Cut
Rakhmonov didn’t mince words when describing the sparring session that many are now questioning. According to him, Garry’s team only released a portion of the footage that suited their narrative, leaving out the crucial moment where Garry tapped out to Rakhmonov’s choke. “At the time, even though his wife asked me if she could film, I accepted it,” said Rakhmonov, referencing the filming during their training. “But they didn’t ask me if they could release it.” The undefeated welterweight believes that Garry and his team made a calculated decision to hide the most important part of the sparring—his submission.
Rakhmonov Not Concerned About Past Sparring, Only the Win
Despite his claim of submitting Garry in training, Rakhmonov made it clear that he’s not underestimating his opponent. “Sparring is sparring; fighting is different,” he said, emphasizing that what happens in practice does not necessarily translate into the octagon. Rakhmonov expressed that his focus for the upcoming fight is not on past training sessions but on securing a victory at UFC 310. “What’s most important for me is the win,” he stated. This fight is a pivotal one, as Rakhmonov’s spot as the next welterweight title challenger is on the line.
Rakhmonov’s Risky Decision to Fight Garry on Short Notice
Originally slated to face Belal Muhammad for the welterweight title, Rakhmonov found himself in a changed situation after Muhammad withdrew due to injury. Rather than wait for another shot at the title, Rakhmonov chose to fight Ian Garry on short notice, a decision that has been met with mixed reactions. While many top-ranked fighters turned down the opportunity, including former champion Kamaru Usman, Garry stepped up to take the challenge. Rakhmonov expressed his appreciation for Garry’s willingness to fight, saying, “A lot of fighters turned it down, and he backed up his word, so I’m glad I’m fighting.”
UFC 310: The Stakes Are High for Rakhmonov
The stakes could not be higher for Rakhmonov this Saturday at UFC 310. Despite Garry being a formidable opponent, Rakhmonov’s determination to stay active and secure his position as the No. 1 contender has fueled his drive to fight. “I wanted to fight. I wanted to stay active,” he explained. While Garry, currently ranked No. 7, is an undefeated and skilled opponent, Rakhmonov remains confident that he can add another win to his record. Whether it’s by submission or stoppage, Rakhmonov’s goal remains the same: victory.
UFC 310 is set to be a thrilling event, with Rakhmonov’s future title aspirations hanging in the balance. The fight between Rakhmonov and Garry promises to be a defining moment in both of their careers.
