Almeida/Aliakbari

All four bouts are quality bouts.

Shame on One to have made Almeida inactive for a whole year. He complained about it but could no go further in details because of ONE contract policy. His Iranian foe is solid, but he if can manage to take him down, he will submit him no doubt, Aliakbari bottom game is suspect, I wish he would wrestle more and display his greco roman background.

If Almeida win the Iranian, he would fight Anatoly next probably in the next 5 months. I would love to see Almeida fail to takedown Anatoly like RDR and getting destroyed on the feet.

Tough decision, both cards are of a similar quality. I'd probably go to ONE, for down knees, but that's just me.

 

[don't ask]

I'm damn excited for this card!

You should not my friend. Perhaps if you were to watch these two fights, would you cease to hate him.

Spectacular and entertaining. He just destroyed Bucheicha.

I won't be surprise if Reug Reug win, he weights 120 KG, his russian rival around 100 KG.

That 20 kilograms advantage give Reug Reug an edge in wrestling exchange and grappling scramble, even though Malykhin is more technical. Batradz Gazzaev was a russian with a wrestler background that weighted around 100 KG, and Reug Reug dominated him easily with that 20 KG advantage.

History may repeat itself. Malykhin like Reug Reug has a wrestler background, but the USSR school is far more technical than the traditional Senegalese wrestling school. This clearly is the heavyweight fight of 2024.

What do you guys think ?
