DWCS 85 Main Event: Lucas Caldas vs. MAGOGMED ZEYNUKOV
At the top of the bill this next Tuesday evening, the light weights compete for a UFC deal when Lucas Caldas (6-1 MMA) bumps with Magomed Zaynukov (7-0 MMA).
Lucas Caldas enters the UFC Apex for DWCS 85 on Tuesday with a 4-1 record in his last five fights. Back on 2 May this year he returned from his first career loss through disqualification to Patrick Gomes (8-5 MMA) because of illegal stumps in the second round by beating Jorge Luis (6-8 MMA) with a first round knockout (punches.)
Caldas is the most impressive when the cage door hits a certain fighting evening. He has completed all his victories through Knock -Out, with five of his six victories that were recorded before the Bell -Tol to end the first round of a fight. Will he score a first round finish here?
Meanwhile, Magomed Zaynukov has to lose in his career. Last February he surpassed Shakhmar Sadygov (7-1-1 MMA) through unanimous decision in VAE Warriors 58.
Zaynukov is a Dagestani hunter on a hot line. Only the time will learn whether he can protect a UFC contract.

Mark Vologdin posted a 5-0 record and has won seven fights in succession. Just like Juan Adrian Luna, Vologdin has its own championship tree tree.
He introduced DWCS 85 and is the AFN Bantamweight champion, after he has defended the belt twice, including in June, when he submitted Cleiton Monteiro (7-5 MMA) with an arm-triangle choke in the opening round.
