The time has come for SUPER FIGHTS predictions. This week, our team pointed out their favorites for the UFC Saudi Arabia, which takes place this Saturday (22). With four Brazilians cast, the show is headlined by Robert whittaker e Ikram Aliskerov.
Former middleweight champion (up to 83,9 kg.), Whittaker experienced major unforeseen circumstances for the show. Initially, the athlete would face Khamzat Shimaev, but, for medical reasons, Dana White's pupil was replaced at the last minute by Aliskerov.
In the co-main event, Sergey Pavlovich and Alexander Volkov they have a real meeting of trucks. The heavyweights (up to 120,2kg) fight with an eye on a future title fight.
UFC veterans, Kelvin Gastelum e Daniel Rodriguez engage in confrontation between the 'desperate'. With the risk of dismissal for the loser in the challenge, the combatants exchange forces on the main card.
As much as Robert whittaker, Shara Magomedov had a changed opponent on the eve of the show. The Russian would have Joilton Peregrino as his opponent, but, after the Brazilian was caught in an anti-doping test, the fighter now shares the octagon with Antonio Trocoli.
Coming from defeat to Magomed Ankalayev, Johnny Walker seeks redemption. The Brazilian will be an opponent of Volkan oezdemir.
