ASA League Heavyweight Yevgeny Goncharov gave a prediction of the potential fights of the best Russian heavyweight in the UFC Sergei Pavlovich against the current champion and the first figure of the classification.
As Goncharov said in an interview with , the biggest threat to Pavlovich is defending champion Francis Ngannou, who defended his belt for the first time this year, beating former teammate Cyril Gan by decision. Pavlovich is currently ranked 3rd in the heavyweight rankings:
“I like Cyril Gun a lot. Difficult to get the keys to it. He moves very well, he has a good Muay Thai. And Francis Ngannou: crazy physique, touched. I really like these two strands.
– With whom it will be more difficult for Sergei Pavlovich?
– I think it will be more difficult with Ngannou, because at any time he can turn off the light. And Cyril Gan, as we have seen, even Tai Tuivasa was able to shock him. Therefore, I think Gan will be more convenient for Pavlovich.
– Do you think it won’t be difficult for him to adapt to Gan?
– It’s difficult, yes, but Francis Ngannou has shown that Gan can be transferred to the ground quite easily. And Sergey is physically strong, he is a basic wrestler, a classic. I think it can happen. He can transfer to the ground, beat, control. said Goncharov.
Sergey Pavlovich is currently on a streak of four knockout victories, two of which he won this year.
