Ko(11-2) is a striker whose career has been all about letting his hands go and finishing fights, so while the fight remains standing, he has a chance. Elliott(12-2) should dominate with his wrestling game and top pressure. He should be able to finish the fight easy enough with G-n-P or even a possible sub. Oban will soon crack the rankings and be a real contender within 1–2 years.
Tofiq Musayev(22-5) makes UFC debut at age 35. Myktybek Orolbai(13-2) is 2-1 in the UFC and has been promoted like a star...the “Iron Golem from Minecraft” gimmick makes his aggressive approach and goofy appearance entertaining to watch. This matchup seems destined to further build the budding star. Musayez does have 18 KOs in his 22 wins, so we should see plenty of action and maybe even a FOTN contender.
Bogdan Grad(15-2) faces Muhammadjon Naimov(12-3) and sparks are bound to fly. Grad has a solid striking games with kicks as well as a good ground game. The "Hillman" on the other hand has devastating kicks, he doesn't even throw them much or even feint, but he lands them with amazing speed and power when he does throw. If Grad can avoid such kick(s) he has a good chance, especially if he gets the fight to the mat. I'll take a chance on a good priced dog.
