1.84Tip and bets
Bookmakers do not believe in Oliveira success at all. In their opinion, Nurmagomedov is undoubtedly the clear favorite of this fight. In general, this is true. Both fighters have approximately the same anthropometric data, but the Latin American does not yet have impressive experience in the UFC. He has not yet met truly serious opponents. The Russian is clearly beyond his capabilities. Said will have to put the upstart from Brazil in his place.
