3.05Tip and bets
Bookmakers experts consider Magomedov to be the clear favorite of the upcoming fight. In their opinion, Page will have very little chance of success. It is not even worth arguing with them. The Russian is very serious about the UFC championship belt and the Englishman will not be a difficult obstacle for him on the way to Olympus. The Briton is no longer very young by sports standards and will not be able to compete with his opponent on equal terms. Shara Bullet will have to achieve victory. Our prediction is an early victory for Magomedov at 2.99
