To the Russian fighter Roman Kopylov changes need to be made in preparation, so his next UFC fight will not take place until early fall, the athlete’s manager Alexander Skaredin told .
In early June, Kopylov defeated Brazilian Cesar Almeida by split decision at UFC 302. The 33-year-old Russian, who competes in the middleweight category, has 13 victories and three defeats in MMA.
“We are now discussing Roman’s continued training as we see the need to make changes at camp. Because lately, his endurance is starting to worry. We will carry out the necessary tests and build preparations, so there is no point in rushing into battles now. A realistic scenario is that Kopylov will fight in the first half of autumn, in September-October. Now we have to reformat a bit,” Skardin told .
The next UFC tournament will take place on June 22 in Saudi Arabia, headlined by a fight between Russian Ikram Aliskerov and Australian Robert Whittaker, and the co-main event will be a fight between Russian heavyweights Sergei Pavlovich and Alexander Volkov.
