The two striking lads from Bashkiria, Russia, have been drawing a lot of attention in Perth, Australia, for quite a while now. The fans of Islam Makhachev had a difficult journey and spent an insane amount of money on tickets. They hope to get on stage during the weigh-in ceremony, just as ACB head Mairbek Khasiev did recently. Despite the lack of advertising in the city, there's tremendous excitement in Perth.
