Paul Hughes accepts Ian Machado Garry’s cornerman offer for Bellator title fight

Paul Hughes welcomes the idea of fellow Irishman Ian Machado Garry being in his corner for his fight with Bellator lightweight champion Usman Nurmagomedov.

At Wednesday’s UFC 310 media day in Las Vegas, Machado Garry was asked if he would be interested in being part of Hughes’ (13-1) corner for the Jan. 25 headliner against Nurmagomedov (18-0) at Bellator Champions Series: Road to Dubai.

Machado Garry instantly agreed to the idea and said it would be a form of reciprocation for something Hughes did for him in June 2021.
