PUBLICITY:

For the first time in history, the Ultimate lands in the Caucasus. And to headline the historic event in Azerbaijan, the main fight of UFC Baku , scheduled for this Saturday (21), promises to shake up the top of the light heavyweight division (up to 93kg). Jamahal Hill and Khalil Rountree face off in a duel that, according to ' Stake ' odds, is totally balanced, with 'War Horse' riding high after a good performance against Alex Poatan and 'Sweet Dream' looking to bounce back.

Ranked fourth, Jamahal Hill hasn't won a title since defeating Glover Teixeira in January 2023. Since then, the American has suffered a serious Achilles tendon injury and has accumulated two knockout losses, to Alex Poatan and Jiri Prochazka.

On the other side, Khalil Rountree occupies the seventh position and was riding a five-fight winning streak until he had the opportunity to fight for the title against Poatan. On that occasion, he managed to give the Brazilian trouble for three rounds, but ended up being knocked out in the fourth round.

In the co-main event, striker Rafael Fiziev , who is experiencing the worst phase of his career with three consecutive losses, appears as a slight underdog, even fighting close to home, against the promising Ignacio Bahamondes . According to Stake 's odds , a Fiziev victory pays R$19,90 for every R$10,00 bet.
