SAID NURMAGOMEDOV VS SAIDYOKUB KAKHRAMONOV PREDICTION
Heading into this weekend’s bantamweight showdown, despite both men sharing the same height, Nurmagomedov will have the edge in the reach department.
With Nurmagomedov looking to pick up his fourth win in a row, it is fair to say that the Russian will have his hands full this weekend. Kakhramonov will prove to be a tough challenge for Nurmagomedov. Kakhramonov’s cardio and strong takedowns will prove to cause a few issues for Said. If Nurmagomedov can be the aggressor early and control the fight, Kakhramonov will find it difficult to come back. We suspect that Nurmagomedov will look to chip away at Kakhramonov’s legs from the off and then look to take the fight to the floor and control the fight.
