Russian light division fighter (up to 70.3 kg) Alexandre Shabliy (22-3) commented on Bellator’s updated ratings.
After the upgrade, he unexpectedly rose to the top spot in the division Usman Nurmagomedov (second cousin of Khabib Nurmagomedov), who has had four fights in the league, won the last three ahead of schedule, but has never fought top 10 opponents.
– It is a great mystery to me how these notes are compiled. I fought two top 10 guys. Now won number two. But I wasn’t surprised when Usman came in first place. I guess the promotion is interested in the name Nurmagomedov. For a title fight, it’s a good title. But if I just won the second number in the rating (Brent Primus, now – the fifth number. – “”), of course, I consider this unfair. At the same time, Brent Primus has always stayed above me: I became fifth and he is fourth (before the ratings update. After the update, Primus was fifth and Shabliy was sixth – “” ). He was a potential candidate for the belt by defeating Benson Henderson. If he won the fight with me, he would definitely get a title fight. – said the Russian fighter “”.
