Russian heavyweight Kirill Sidelnikov told that he would not like to see a fight between Alexander Volkov And Sergei Pavlovich in the UFC.
Russians Pavlovich and Volkov will face each other at the UFC tournament in Saudi Arabia on June 22.
“I wouldn’t really like to (see) that fight.” And in general, I don’t want to see Russians fighting among themselves in the United States or in another country. But they had no choice: it was Seryoga or Sanya. From a sporting point of view, I am very interested in following this confrontation. Two strong attackers who don’t like to fight will meet. I’m sure the fight will be spectacular. The odds are 50 to 50. If at first Seryoga fails to stop Sanya, then Sanya will take the next rounds,” Sidelnikov told .
Volkov (37-10) enters the UFC on a three-fight winning streak and ranks fifth in the heavyweight division. Pavlovich (18-2) lost his last fight in November against Briton Tom Aspinall for the UFC interim belt. Before that, Pavlovich’s streak in the UFC was six early first-round wins. The Russian occupies third place in the ranking.
