With Visa Issues Seemingly Sorted The UFC Makes Taisumov vs. Dunham Official For UFC 223 in Brooklyn

[Arkridge]

After the originally rumored bout was in doubt after more and more visa issues for Mairbek Taisumov, the UFC must have it in great confidence that the issues will be sorted before UFC 223 as they've officially announced the bout for Brooklyn.

Who wins?

Sorry that i say this, i just don't like russian fighters....
can't help it

 

[ArtemV]

He still doesn't have a visa, we still have to wait for the news on Taisumov. I suppose this sounds better than before - but still not 100%. Still more waiting.

I think it's terrible matchmaking, Taisumov should be 2-3 fights from the belt not fighting the Dunhams of this world

it's partly due to all his visa issues only allowing him to fight once a year and fighting just to stay relevant to the hardcore fan base. praying to god this is his breakout year where he get's legit top 5 match ups. dude is a monster.
