Tony Ferguson will face Beneil Dariush in the co-main event. Estimated start of the battle – 06:30 Kyiv time. The fight will be broadcast live on Setanta Sports.

After the fight between Nate Diaz and Leon Edwards was postponed to a later date, the UFC 262 co-main event received a meeting between lightweights Tony Ferguson and Beneil Dariush.

Former interim UFC champion Ferguson (25-5) will return after an extremely unsuccessful 2020 for himself. He first ended his 12-game winning streak in May when he was stopped by a fifth-round TKO by Justin Gaethje and then lopsided on points to Charles Oliveira at UFC 256 in December. However, El Cucuy is ranked 5th in the rankings. UFC.

No. 9 in this ranking, Dariusz (20-4-1), on the other hand, is on a white streak of six consecutive victories. After knocking out Drakkar Klose and Scott Holtzman last year, Dariush defeated Carlos Diego Ferreira via split decision in February at UFC Fight Night 184.

Prediction for the fight

Ferguson and Dariush both feel great both in the standing and on the ground. Dariush, unlike his opponent, has a pronounced knockout punch, while Ferguson is a more diverse and non-standard fighter.

Dariush is capable of shocking Ferguson, who is in decline, but we believe that Tony’s skill is still enough to beat his opponent. But we believe that it will be a competitive and exciting fight that will go through all three rounds.
