The previous fight in March 2022 ended with Magomedov's victory by an armbar submission in the fourth round.
"I looked into Muslim's eyes and found new motivation. I realized that I have to fight the champion again and this time prove that I am the best. I am much more mentally and morally prepared for the rematch with Magomedov, and I am 100% ready for the fight. I started preparing properly, and my endurance and perseverance are much better. Among Magomedov's strengths, I can only name his wrestling. There is very little time left until the rematch. I just need to make weight and show everything I am capable of. June 28, Sochi, I am waiting for your support. This fight will be very spectacular, I promise you! I will remove the zero in Muslim's loss column!" said Grigor Matevosyan.
