UFC Fight Night 221: Yan vs. Dvalishvili is scheduled to take place in Las Vegas on March 12 at The Theater at Virgin Hotels. The main card of the event will host middleweights, Russian Abusupiyan Magomedov and Uzbek Makhmud Muradov. The fight is planned for 01:00 UK time.
Abusupiyan Magomedov has every chance to make an excellent name for himself in the promotion. Yes, he has only one fight so far in the UFC, but that doesn’t mean anything. He has a lot of experience anyway, thirty fights in his career say it all. Again, it was clear from the recent fight that he is in great shape. Muradov started well but then began to suffer two defeats, not against the strongest opponents. Most probably Magomedov will win this fight with confidence.
Abusupiyan Magomedov is a 32-year-old fighter, originally from Russia. In his career ‘’Abus’’ has fought thirty fights, winning 25 of them, losing 4, and also one fight ended in a draw. 13 wins by knockout, 5 by decision and 7 by submission. Russian tried his power in such organizations as Superior FC, PFL, KSW and others.
Despite his good record, he managed only one fight in the UFC, destroying American Dustin Stoltzfus by technical knockout (front kick and punches) in the first 19 seconds. But it was clear from the fight with Dustin that Magomedov can show himself glamourously in the top promotion.
Makhmud Muradov is a 33-year-old Uzbek representative of the middleweight division. He has a record of 25-8 (17 wins by knockout, 5 decisions and 3 submissions). He distinguished himself in Oktagon MMA and XFN promotions for which he was invited to UFC, where he was winning from the very beginning until he had a three-fight winning streak defeating opponents such as Italian Alessio ‘’Manzo’’ Di Chirico by unanimous decision in the third round, then American Trevor ‘’Hot Sauce’’ Smith by knockout (punches) in the third and American Andrew ‘’El Dirte’’ Sanchez by technical knockout (flying knee and punches) in the third rounds.
Soon after, he lost to American Gerald ’’GM3’’ Mershart by submission in the second round via rear naked choke and then to Brazilian Cayo ‘’The Natural’’ Borralho by unanimous decision of the judges.
