LAS VEGAS – Ian Machado Garry is not in a sane state of mind, at least that’s what his opponent Shavkat Rakhmonov thinks. Rakhmonov (15-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) takes on Machado Garry (18-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) in a No. 1 contender fight at welterweight in the co-main event of UFC 310 – which takes place Saturday at T-Mobile Arena. A lot has been said by the two undefeated title contenders, but Rakhmonov thinks some of the specific comments Machado Garry made are a bit crazy. “I don’t think that’s how it’s going to happen; I think he’s delusional,” Rakhmonov said through an interpreter at Wednesday’s media day when asked to react to Machado Garry’s stoppage prediction. “I think I’m going to beat him and get to my goal.” Out of his 15 professional wins, Machado Garry has stopped eight of his opponents
