Russian mixed martial arts fighter Alexandre Chabli in a chat with , he explained why Sergei Pavlovich can win Alexandra Volkova at the UFC Fight Night tournament in Saudi Arabia.
Russian fighters competing in the UFC heavy division will fight on June 22. During his MMA career, Volkov had 37 wins and 10 losses, while Pavlovich had 18 wins and two losses.
— For me, the favorite with a slight advantage is Pavlovich. I think Volkov will structure the fight in such a way as to work from a long distance – to knock down the opponent’s attacks with direct kicks to the stomach. But he has a disadvantage: he holds his head too high.
Volkov has a non-standard boxing technique. When a person stands in a high position with a straight back, there is a high risk of missing a strong blow to the beard and being knocked unconscious. It seems to me that Pavlovich can win precisely thanks to a finishing move – to catch Volkov when he is as straight as possible or fails in the attack.
The odds in this fight are even, but my favorite is Seryoga. He’s my compatriot, from Rostov-on-Don, we trained with him,” Shabliy told .
