Ikram Aliskerov, who will face Bruno Ferreira at the UFC Fight Night Baku event to be held at the National Gymnastics Arena on June 27, appeared before journalists in Baku.

Offsideplus.az reports that he first answered the question "How many people will come from Dagestan?"

"I can't say exactly (laughs). My team will be 10 people. They will support me here. But I can't count, there will probably be a lot of fans. It's a 2-hour drive to my house. Actually, I came here by car. It's not that far. I'm from a village, I consider myself better there. Now I live in the city. Home is home".

He announced that he will not be in the corner of Islam Makhachev and Khabib Nurmagomedov:

"Islam is preparing for his fight and therefore he will not be able to come. Khabib, on the other hand, has not been to my sparring sessions, and he himself said that he does not want to be in the corner of fighters he has not seen fight".
