News Amosov signs with ufc

[Siver!]

So as a middleweight or a welterweight?

I'm sure he fought at middleweight in the regionals? Maybe because he couldn't get a decent opponent?

Either way, a good addition to either weight class.

He somehow looks like an even older Glover Texeira, even though he's only 32

First thing I thought of

Yeah, I mixed the two up. The Jackson fight really showed the level Amosov's striking was at. It looked much improved in the Storley rematch, but in retrospect, it spoke poorly of Storley's striking skills. Since then, we've only seen Amosov have a tuneup fight where he could implement his grappling. I don't think it's clear he's ahead of Kuramagomedov or Umalatov. He might be, but still has a lot of questions regarding the Jackson performance. I think he could still be a contender in UFC, and he's been largely inactive these last 2 years, so maybe he's shored up the holes in his striking since.

I think that fight was somewhat of an anomaly and you have to remember it was his first fight after the war started and I don't think he was training properly before it

Fair take, and he's barely fought since, so we'll see soon enough.

I remember Amosov getting heavy praise for his skill around 2022/3-ish. Haven't heard much of him since

Interesting, I'm reckoning UFC 324, headlining the prelims or something. Im not as arsed about this signing as some, but he's definitely a solid addition to the division. I agree with those saying Buckley.

I think PFL will probably announce him getting murdered by Musaev soon.

Heard he's fighting Magny on the last card of the year

See if Magney lets him through the gates first
