Champion UFC lightweight Islam Makhachev told when he might think about ending his professional career as a fighter, Sports.kz reports with reference to Sport24.ru.
On October 27, the Russian turned 33 years old.
— Is there a number in the record or an age threshold at which you will stop? – No. I don't associate anything with this. Beterbiev is 39 years old and the best boxer in the world. Years are not the limit. I don't have any numbers at all. I train with a lot of young guys in the gym. If I see that I can’t keep up anymore, that they are catching up with me, surpassing me, then why should I torture myself? I'll stop. But so far there is no such thing. I feel like I'm in a rush.
