Russian Sharabutdin Magomedov, known as Shara Bullet, demonstrated his readiness to face top opponents in a fight with Brazilian Antonio Trocoli, according to UFC fighter Irina Alekseeva.
On Saturday in Saudi Arabia, Magomedov defeated Trocoli by TKO in the third round. The Brazilian, making his UFC debut, entered the fight on short notice.
— I was expecting a knockout from him, and thank God, everything turned out that way. I really like Shara, that it is very difficult to translate him, although he is a basic Thai boxer, but he has a good sense of wrestling. And even in the last fight with Bruno Silva, although he was translated, he fought no worse even on the ground. In general, his powerful legs are just something. In general, he is a rather unconventional fighter, his appearance attracts attention. People remember him. He has practically everything.
As for his readiness for fights with the top guys, I think it’s up to him to decide whether he’s ready for such tests or not. Many can have several fights and not “step on the gas” against the strongest fighters, and some start doing it after their first victory. But so far I haven’t seen any negative things about his readiness for fights with the top guys. He feels the fight, he throws out lightning-fast series in a stand-up position and outperforms his opponents in the number of punches by two or three times, Metaratings.ru quotes Alekseeva as saying.
For the undefeated Magomedov, this victory was the 13th in mixed martial arts. The professional record of 33-year-old Trokoli is 12 wins and four losses.

“The grappling match with Makhachev will not take place, because Islam earns a lot of money in the UFC” – Tsarukyan
UFC lightweight number one Arman Tsarukyan said that he does not yet consider a potential grappling fight with the promotion’s welterweight champion Islam Makhachev to be realistic.
On Tuesday, Tsarukyan and Sharabutdin Magomedov, known by his nickname Shara Bullet, ended in a draw in a grappling bout in Yerevan.
— The grappling match with Makhachev will not take place, because Islam earns a lot of money in the UFC. I don’t think anyone can afford to pay him that amount,” Red Corner MMA quotes Tsarukyan as saying.

Former world heavyweight champion, British Tyson Rage I am sure that WBC champion Oleksandr Usyk will leave his belt vacant due to the lack of interesting opponents:
“Usyk will not fight opponents ranked in the WBC because it is impossible to make good money from these fights. How much money will he make by fighting Agit Kabayel or Lawrence Okolie?”
Frankly, these are insufficient. After making a ton of money fighting Tyson Fury, you don’t want to go back to fights that have no financial benefit.
Usik will therefore give up his WBC title and Agit Kabayel will become the full world champion. He will be able to defend against (German boxer) Okolie or Moses Itauma,” Fury said on the DAZN platform.
Kabayel’s next opponent will be Poland’s undefeated representative Damian Knyba. The fight for the WBC interim title will take place in Germany on January 10.

The incident occurred on Monday along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. The Lexus SUV Joshua was in collided with a stationary truck. According to the preliminary version of the investigation, the accident occurred due to a burst tire when the Lexus exceeded the speed limit on this section of the road. In addition to Joshua and the driver, there were also two people in the car who died on the spot.
Local police said Joshua was in a “stable” condition and had only suffered “minor” injuries, although there were concerns they could be more serious than previously reported. So Joshua will remain in the hospital for at least a couple more days as he continues to recover.
At the hospital, the boxer occupies the “royal suite”. Here, patients receive personalized care 24 hours a day and have access to medical and front desk staff. They also receive gourmet meals from the kitchen, prepared to suit their tastes.
Olympic champion Joshua defeated American blogger Jake Paul in a fight in Miami on December 19. In total, he has 29 victories and four defeats in the professional ring.
