Very best state of affairs underneath the circumstances. I wished to see the Hooker struggle however Fiziev is defintely the extra harmful struggle. Fortunately we get this rematch as a substitute of Gamrot or Moicano.

That first struggle was fireplace, however rattling, that is a tricky re-entry for Fiziev coming off an ACL tear, 18 months out, on two weeks discover? I do not see how he wins underneath these circumstances, however he is an absolute G for stepping up.

You understand what can be stupidly enjoyable struggle? Topuria vs Fiziev! I all the time thought Fiziev ought to have dropped down a weight class, so a LW struggle with the FW champ shifting up can be a burner.

Can be attention-grabbing to see if Jamahall Corridor’s satisfaction needs some extra candy desires napping or if he will try and wrassle his method to a lay and pray break up decison. This was the struggle to make both manner, UFC will get one proper as soon as in awhile.
