Forecast for the fight Usman Nurmagomedov vs Luis Muro
Over the past few years, the UFC lightweight has been shaken by several events, one of which was the two-year disqualification of T. J. Dillashaw.

The UFC leadership is working on various strategies for the development of certain fighters.

However, this time for an athlete from AKA, we have prepared a difficult opponent, even if he is not so popular.
