Slovan Bratislava vs Dynamo Batumi
At the time of selection of fighters who will sign contracts with the UFC, the leadership of the league is very critical of age athletes. However, Muslim Salikhov was an exception and, judging by his success, Dana White did not doubt the correctness of his choice. A convincing series of victories allowed the "King of Kung Fu" to come close to the TOP 15 welterweight, but first he will need to overcome a formidable opponent in the face of Jinliang Li.

Who will be stronger and whose striking technique will be more effective? We will answer this question in our detailed prediction.
The UFC featherweight division has always been filled with real monsters, and guys like Yair Rodriguez and Brian Ortega are definitely in that caste. It is even surprising that they were not brought together much earlier, because from time to time each of them is at arm's length from the championship title. The matchmakers decided to organize this fight, and on July 16, in the main event of the UFC ACB 3 tournament, representatives of two different schools will share the octagon in order to determine the best.

Brian Ortega vs Yair Rodriguez
The clash of BJJ and taekwondo - this rarely happens, because the interest in their confrontation will be doubled.

In any case, a magnificent fight awaits us, the probable victor of which we will determine in our detailed prediction.
Often, trilogies between fighters are organized if their score in terms of won fights is equal. However, in the case of Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway, everything is different - Alex won the first meeting confidently, and in the second he retained the title “on thin”. That is why the UFC management decided to bring them together again, because a large part of the fans are sure that it was Max who took the dilogy.

Alexander Volkanovski vs Max Holloway

Yokohama Marinos vs Tochigi
In the history of the UFC middle division, there have been enough legendary fighters who have forever taken a place in the hearts of the fans. But after the era of the reign of Anderson Silva, only Israel Adesanya, who already has 4 successful belt defenses and an army of fans behind his back, was able to attract special attention.

The small diaspora of Kazakh fighters in the UFC is gradually expanding, and since 2020, the league's welterweight division has been replenished with another name that does not know defeat - Shavkat Rakhmonov. This guy has finished every fight and it looks like he doesn't know what the word "settle down" means.

Shavkat Rakhmonov vs Neil Magny

Belshina vs Energetik-BGU
The lion's share of fighters after signing in the UFC go a long way before meeting with big-name opponents and getting the opportunity to show all their skills to the general public. However, Arman Tsarukyan became one of the few who were lucky enough to share the octagon with Islam Makhachev in the debut and give the best fight of the evening. Despite the defeat, the athlete was remembered by the public for his flamboyant style, and now fans are looking forward to his performance.

Arman Tsarukyan vs Mateusz Gamrot

Several generations of mixed martial arts fans are familiar with such a fighter as Gegard Mousasi. He began to beat people professionally in the octagon 20 years ago and still manages to remain at the highest level. As is often the case, veteran prospects are on the hunt for their heads, and at Bellator 282, the Dreamcatcher will face the undefeated guy, Johnny Ablin.

For years, Josh Emmett has been in the shadow of the UFC featherweight division, taking on little-known opposition and winning fights by decision. However, after a crushing knockout in a duel with Ricardo Lamas, he began a rapid ascent to the TOP, where he showed the public his full potential. He will have the opportunity to do it again at UFC on ESPN 37, where an equally awesome fighter, Calvin Kattar, will stand opposite.

Calvin Kattar vs Josh Emmett
On account of the American, a good dozen confrontations with eminent opponents, and his uncompromising style leaves no chance for an easy walk in the cage.

And what will be more effective: technique and power, or inhuman stamina with an insane desire to arrange a felling? It's time to find the right answer.
After the protracted conflict between the ASA and their fighter, Artem Reznikov, no one believed that he could break into the Lightweight Grand Prix to meet the best representatives of his division there. However, all issues were settled, and at the ACA 140 tournament, which will be held in Sochi, our athlete will meet with ex-UFC fighter Davi Ramos.

Artem Reznikov vs Davi Ramos
The Brazilian is very dangerous on the ground, so it will be doubly interesting to see whose technique on the ground is better. The winner of this pair will reach the semi-finals of the tournament bracket, and it is quite possible that this is the only chance for Reznikov to prove once again that he is the best representative of his category in the entire post-Soviet space.
The lightest women's division of the UFC has been under the strict guidance of the champion from Kyrgyzstan, Valentina Shevchenko, for several years now.

This time the "Bullet" will face a powerful Brazilian - Tayla Santos, as well as Valentina herself, who has a past in Muay Thai. The ladies will meet in the co-main event of the numbered event, and despite the complete dominance of the title holder over her opponents, this particular confrontation will be of great importance for Shevchenko's future career.

Valentina Shevchenko vs Tayla Santos
Who would have thought that after losing to Jon Jones in 2014, Glover Teixeira would shine on the UFC posters as a champion, after a whole 8 years from that moment. This Brazilian has come a long way in mixed martial arts and deserves his place in the division. However, young and hungry lions, ready to give everything for the belt, abound in the light heavyweight division, and on June 11 in Singapore, Glover will have to overcome another fearsome fighter - Jiri Prochazka.

Glover Teixeira vs Jiri Prochazka
The final series of the VTB United League throws up the most interesting matches, each of which becomes a real decoration of the current competition draw. At the moment, the score is 3-3, so the winner of the main prize will be determined in the upcoming match.

CSKA vs Zenit
CSKA was in the lead with a very comfortable handicap and looked like the undisputed favorite of the confrontation. But first he made a mistake at home, and then he lost a lot on the road. Therefore, the emotional state of basketball players definitely leaves much to be desired, they are unlikely to be able to enter the floor without nervousness and jitters. Zenith has already accomplished quite a feat as they saved a near-dead streak and hold on to their chance to win the title with the last of their strength. Moreover, the club is definitely in a better position, as it was able to turn the situation around at the most difficult moment. Now he can relax a bit, because even in the event of a final defeat, he deserves recognition and support for a worthy fight. On June 5, the decisive seventh match of the series will take place on the floor of the Megasport Arena in Moscow.
Undefeated world champions in the light heavyweight division, undefeated Russian Artur "White Puncher" Beterbiev (WBC / IBF titles) and US representative, Joe Smith Jr. (WBO title), will be held on June 18 at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Artur Beterbiev vs Joe Smith Jr.
Fighters with “0” in the defeat column often fly into the UFC, since such craftsmen are much easier to promote, and fans always wonder if an athlete will keep such statistics at such a high level. In 2019, the first representative of Ingushetia in the octagon, Movsar Evloev, also came to measure his strength against the best athletes on the planet, and after so much time, he manages to emerge undefeated from the fights.

Movsar Evloev vs Dan Ige
But on June 5, our fighter will have to meet the most formidable opponent in his career - Dan Ige, who managed to establish himself as a very strong middle peasant, ready to enter the cage with any opponent. At UFC Fight Night 207, they will have to fight for a place in the TOP-10 of the featherweight division, and who is most likely to get the victory - we will understand our detailed prediction.
The final series of the VTB United League is nearing its logical conclusion, both teams are doing their best and trying to demonstrate the optimal level of play. The obvious advantage is on the side of CSKA Moscow, which won three victories and leads the series - 3-1.

CSKA vs Zenit
The "soldiers" demonstrate that they do not experience much resistance within the League, they are too much superior to all opponents in the speed of decision-making, the use of their chances and individual skill. They approach the home meeting with the most comfortable advantage, so they should not experience any special moral pressure. The team will try to resolve all issues already in the upcoming match, so as not to drag out the fight for the title, not to waste extra strength and emotions. Zenith gives up the last of his strength on the floor and acts with great desire, but even this is not enough for the final victory. It’s impossible to close completely “own” matches, stupid mistakes fail at the most key moment. Therefore, the emotional state of basketball players frankly leaves much to be desired. On May 30, the fifth fight of the series will take place, which can dot the i's.
For the third time in a row, the national teams of Finland and Canada will play in the finals of the Ice Hockey World Championship. The decisive game of the championship will take place on May 29 in Tampere, at the local ice arena "Tampere Dec".

Finland vs Canada
Zenit and CSKA continue to cut fiercely in the final series of the VTB United League. After three matches, the Moscow “CSKA” are leading with a score of 2-1, they look as convincing as possible.

Zenit vs CSKA
Zenith is still in the position of catching up, because it failed in two opening matches. But the last victory allowed me to believe a little that there are real chances to save the situation. The team completely dominated the home parquet and began to remind themselves of better times. It will be incredibly difficult to put a successful result on stream, but the club from St. Petersburg no longer has any other way out, it risks letting go of the series. Moscow CSKA looks significantly more confident than the opponent and acts with a huge advantage. He allowed himself to give the third match to the experiments of the coaching staff, and under his curtain there were completely non-standard ligaments of basketball players on the floor. But now it's time to seriously and disciplinedly join the fight, because one more misfire can turn the course of the final series 180 degrees. On May 27, the rivals will face each other on the floor of the Sibur Arena in St. Petersburg in the fourth match of the series.
The series for third place in the VTB United League pleases with fiery matches, as well as plot twists. So far, UNICS is in the lead, which leads in meetings with a score of 2-1. He has only one fight left to send to his piggy bank.

Lokomotiv Kuban vs UNICS
Lokomotiv-Kuban returned to its native walls with great optimism. He expected to win both matches and win bronze medals, to achieve his goal. But the team managed to stumble, which greatly affects the opportunity to pick up the consolation prize. Krasnodar residents are torn between the desire to enter the top three and go on vacation as soon as possible. UNICS continues to pull at the expense of the individual skill of their performers. Basketball players act quite fragmented, they frankly lack mutual understanding and coherence. Kazan expect to finally take the last fight in the series to please their fans and go on vacation. On May 26, the fourth meeting will take place, in which the rivals will meet on the floor of the Basket Hall arena in Krasnodar.
The final series of the VTB United League is rapidly approaching its logical conclusion. CSKA Moscow leads 2-0 in matches, looks just great. He will try to calmly bring things to the coveted title, he really wants to win the main prize of the competition in the most difficult conditions. This will be the best confirmation of the effective work of the management, as well as the excellent condition of the composition.

Zenit vs CSKA
But Zenith looks frankly weak and helpless, is unlikely to find the strength to turn the tide. Of course, he has two matches in a row on the home floor, which allows him to count on a comeback. But the defense so far frankly fails, cannot hold back the opponent's attack. On May 25, the opponents will face each other on the floor of the Sibur Arena in St. Petersburg in the third match of the series.
The series for the third place in the VTB United League is fast-paced and pleases with unexpected turns, Lokomotiv-Kuban and UNICS are still on par - 1:1. Now one of the teams will be able to get ahead.

Lokomotiv Kuban vs UNICS
Lokomotiv-Kuban did not start very convincingly, it looked very weak in the first match. But then he showed his character and returned to the fight for bronze medals. Basketball players have shown that they have not become less motivated, they have a desire to prove their worth against the backdrop of a top opponent. UNICS is too upset by the failure in the semi-finals, so they practically don't give all the best now. It is noticeable that many performers mentally have already gone on vacation. Most likely, on the road it will be incredibly difficult to return to the fight. On May 24, the rivals will meet each other on the floor of the Basket Hall arena in Krasnodar.
The rivalry between pop MMA and professional mixed martial arts is gaining momentum, and this despite the fact that these areas are related. At one time, Marif Piraev conquered the heights of the mixfight, but later decided to move into the pop segment, where he gained unprecedented popularity. However, he was always drawn to big goals, so his return to the pros was not delayed.

Nariman Abbasov vs Marif Piraev
Piranha chose a worthy opponent - AMC Fight Nights lightweight champion Nariman Abbasov. He is doing everything possible to get into the UFC, but for now he will have to resolve the conflict with one of the main characters of YouTube promotions. At Fight Nights 112, athletes will meet in the cage to find the best lightweight in the entire post-Soviet space. And which of them has more chances for victory - let's figure it out in our detailed forecast.

And now, on June 5, he will have his first fight under the banner of this league, in which he will meet with the Greek athlete, Andreas Mikhailidis, who has been playing in the UFC since 2020.

Rinat Fakhretdinov vs Andreas Mikhailidis
For Fakhretdinov, this is an ideal opportunity to start a rapid climb in the ratings, since Andreas has a number of confrontations with well-known opposition, both in the Russian MMA arena and in Western organizations. Which of the guys will perform better at UFC Vegas 56, and snatch such an important victory? The answers will be given in our detailed forecast.
Barcelona was considered the main contender for the championship in the Euroleague, especially this confidence arose after a very successful regular championship. But the semi-finals showed that the team is not ready to fight for the main prize of the competition, and will be forced to be content only with the fight for bronze medals. The mood in the Blue Garnet camp leaves much to be desired, since no one expected such a failure in the Final Four. It will be difficult to pull myself together and give a quality repechage match.

Barcelona vs Olympiacos
Olympiakos in many ways unexpectedly broke through so far, initially they were not expected at all in such serious showdowns. But the team was able to demonstrate character and turn on the maximum at the right time. She has a good opportunity to win medals in a season that initially seemed like a failure. Therefore, the team will definitely try to take advantage of this opportunity. On May 21, the rivals will clash with each other on the floor of the Stark Arena in Belgrade.
The final series of the VTB United League is about to start, which promises to be fantastic in terms of intensity of passions and emotions. CSKA definitely approaches the confrontation in the status of a favorite, has excellent chances to send another title to its piggy bank. The team almost did not notice the loss of key players, having done a great job in the transfer market. So now she must endure in terms of physical condition.

CSKA vs Zenit
Zenith has been trying to put sticks in the wheels of a formidable opponent for many years. But while the team can not oppose anything to the opponent. He expects that this season will finally allow him to win the main prize of the competition. On May 20, the opponents will play the first match of the series, which will take place on the floor of the Krylatskoye Arena in Moscow.

And on June 5, just such a fight awaits us, in which representatives of the UFC TOP-10 will participate: Alexander Volkov and Jairzinho Rozenstruik. These two will enter the cage after the defeats, because for both the victory in the upcoming fight is very important.

The battle for the bronze medals of the VTB United League is about to start, which will be little consolation for these clubs. UNICS lost three matches in a row and after a very successful match gave up the series with Zenit. After such a slap in the face, it will be very difficult to recover and achieve a positive result. Of course, the team will try to win at least third place in the current draw, but it will be incredibly difficult to get out of the current crisis.

UNICS vs Lokomotiv-Kuban
Lokomotiv-Kuban did not look like a favorite before the start of the playoff stage, so it "burned out" quite expectedly. But in the series against CSKA, the team showed a desire to win, character and will. Therefore, Krasnodar has significantly risen in the eyes of specialists and ordinary fans. On May 19, the rivals will meet each other on the floor of the Basket Hall arena in Kazan.
Women who perform in mixed martial arts rarely write their names into the history of this sport, and even more so they cannot be remembered for a long time by fans. However, Holly Holm managed not only to make an excellent career for herself, but will forever remain in the memory of people as the first girl who managed to demolish Ronda Rousey herself from the throne.

Holly Holm vs Kathleen Vieira
Many years have passed since then, but the "Preacher's Daughter" continues to hold high positions in the ratings, and on May 22, she, along with Kathleen Viyera, will head the UFC Fight Night 206 tournament. The ladies will represent different styles in the octagon, which doubles the interest to this confrontation. And more importantly, the winner may well count on a title chance in the future.
