ACA heavyweight champion Evgeny Goncharov said that Russian Petr Yan is the favorite in a fight against Brazilian Deiveson Figueredo.
The fight will headline the UFC on November 23 in Macau. Yan, who competes at bantamweight, will face former UFC flyweight champion Figueredo after the Brazilian fighter said he would move up one division.
– Yan is the clear favorite in the fight with Figueredo. He will not have any problems with the Brazilian if he is at least 80% ready. He will break him in a standing position and will not let him fight. There will be intrigue if he comes up in poor shape, so we want to give Yan the best condition in his career,” Metaratings.ru quotes Goncharov as saying.
