Brazilian Deiveson Figueredo is a convenient opponent for the Russian Petra Jana an RCC fighter shared this opinion with Ivan Shtyrkov .
The fight between Yan and Figueredo has been officially announced and will headline the UFC event in Macau, China on November 23.
– Good fight. In fact, Figueredo was a big surprise in his last fight. I did everything according to tactics, everything correctly. Marlon Vera isn’t an opponent capable of outperforming him in anything other than stand-up, but he wasn’t particularly motivated to take on Figueredo in any way. I did everything clearly.
I think it will be a good return for Petya. I mean after an injury, after healing. And he’s a pretty handy opponent, I would say, for Peter. Yes, he fights well, he’s good in the stands, but he doesn’t have the same control on the field, for example, as Sterling. He imposes the fight a little differently. And the position isn’t as versatile as, say, Sandhagen, who is one of the best fighters in this division.
Therefore, if Petya gets in shape, I think everything will be clear. Figueredo is a very good opponent for a spectacular and practical fight for Petit,” Shtyrkov told .
Yan is 31 years old; During his career, he won 17 and suffered five defeats in mixed martial arts. Figueredo, 36, has 24 fights, three defeats and one draw. Petr Yan previously held the UFC bantamweight belt, and Figueredo held the flyweight belt.
