The trainer of the Russian UFC fighter Magomed Ankalaev Sukhrab Magomedov said that he considers Ankalaev the winner in the fight with the Pole Jan Blachowicz.
In the duel between Ankalaev and Blachowicz, judge Mike Bell considered that Blachowicz won (48:47), judge Derek Cleary gave the score 48:46 in favor of Ankalaev, and judge Sal D’Amato recorded a draw 47:47. The fight ended in a draw, and the championship belt remained vacant.
Mohammed won. Maybe he did not do everything he could, but in principle, he won. He did enough to win. I am a believer, we propose, but the Almighty disposes. So it was meant to be. So, it was so predestined for us that we were not supposed to pick up the belt that day,” Magomedov told Metaratings.ru.
