It’s really hard. It’s a mistake to chase it all, and it can play a dirty trick in terms of your future career. ‘Chanko’ needs to work hard in the gym, and as for media recognition, it will come on its own. So all that’s needed is focus.”Makhachev also spoke about his road to success and added that he had already done the grind and it was time for ‘Chanko’ to do the same:“I have already graduated from the university.
