Former UFC lightweight champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov, shared his opinion about the upcoming confrontation between Arman Tsarukyan and Damir Ismagulov, which will take place this weekend.
“For me, it’s 50/50,” Nurmagomedov said. “They are both good, both on the go, both young. Anything can happen in this fight, but I’m leaning a little more towards Ismagulov. A little bit, at 51. He has a huge amateur career, he defends well from the fight, and when the fights are bone to bone, Ismagulov goes well. I may be wrong, but 51 vs 49 I think Ismagulov will win”
Recall that the lightweight fight between Arman Tsarukyan and Damir Ismagulov will be the second most important event of the UFC Fight Night 216 tournament, with which the strongest league in the world will end the current year on December 17.
