Borisov, 40, has 26 wins, six losses and a draw. In March 2022, Borisov won the ACA bantamweight belt and made a defense – in March 2023, the fighter beat Rustam Kerimov in the Grand Prix quarterfinals.
– The guy has been fighting for so many years! God forbid anyone to reach such an age, win the title and continue to perform at such a high level (like Borisov). How was he going to show up in the UFC… We won’t know now. Although if it comes to that, a few fights in the UFC, and he will be taken, for example, to (Aljamain) Sterling, if he remains the champion, then we can talk about this topic. And so we are all people, and everyone has a chance. Sterling has the same two legs, two arms, blood, bones, meat. It all depends on the person and their skills,” Vitruk told .
Vitruk himself (16-6) will perform at the ACA 160 tournament and fight in the bantamweight division against Brazil’s Maycon Silvan (18-7).
