Ramazan Ismailov, brother and coach Magomed Ismailov told RB Sport that the Russian UFC fighter Umar Nurmagomedov stronger Meraba Dvalishvili but the Georgian has a plus in the form of good stamina.
– Do you have a feeling that in the bantamweight division no one will stop Umar Nurmagomedov, that he is the future champion?
– Umar is a top fighter. I would like him to represent Dagestan at the highest level after Khabib. He has competition in the division, but not at O’Malley. Sterling and Dvalishvili can compete with the wrestling base. We saw that in the last fight Omar fought on the bar, but I don’t think he will be flirting on the bar with O’Malley. There are good analysts in Khabib Nurmagomedov’s gymnasium, they see who and how to fight. If you fight with an attacker, as a freestyler you have to knock down the opponent and show your strengths.
– Merab Dvalishvili in the fight with Peter Yan regularly performed takedowns, but could not keep him on the canvas. Does Dvalishvili’s wrestling impress you?
“I was impressed with his cardio. He worked at such a pace that he breathed the fighter Petr Yan format. The cardio is unreal, he worked the five laps like clockwork. This is his trump card in a fight with any opponent.
Will it work against Umar?
– If Dvalishvili works the same as with Jan, he will enter his water. He will try to dump Umar and end up at home. Whoever has the best fight at the moment will already dominate there. We saw how Umar scored from the stand in terms of kickboxing. Nurmagomedov is stronger in all components. Merab’s trump card is unrealistic cardio, thanks to which he can do a lot of actions. If you are weaker than him in cardio, after the third round you will start to sag,” said Ramazan Ismailov.
Umar Nurmagomedov has won all 16 fights in MMA. In the last fight, held in January, he knocked out Raoni Barcelos. In the UFC bantamweight rankings, 27-year-old Nurmagomedov is ranked 11th.
