Magomed Ankalaev is not sucked up in all the drama for his Rematch with Alex Pereira.
After he had taken the light heavyweight throne of ‘Patan’ in March, Ankalaev will set up his crown for grabbing against the Brazilian knezer in one of the most expected continuation of the year.
In the weeks prior to their UFC 320 headliner, the tensions rose between the two 205 pound stars. But after exchanging words at the UFC Performance Institute last month, Ankalaev is satisfied to leave the “luggage” and concentrate on the task that must be performed.
“You know, there is not like an emotional baggage that I bring to this thing or an emotional thing for this,” said Ankalaev in one Interview with the UFC. “It is – in the context, he said what he said. He said I was hiding from him. I heard it. That really upset me. I didn’t like that. So I found him and I said:” You were looking for me? ” Here I am. I don’t hide. “Then he answered me.
“So it’s not as if I am emotionally distraught in this fight – not at all. Other than that, respect, whatever, there is nothing I think about, except that I concentrate on the fight. I don’t care for the rest of the noise.”
Ankalaev is the chance of opportunities in Pereira Rematch
Ankalaev goes to his first light heavyweight title defense as a moderate favorite, trending on sports books on -250, which means that a bet of $ 250 would yield your $ 100, should the Dagestani come at the top.
However, if you believe that Ankalaev will bounce back the first time after his matte performance, a bet of $ 100 h $ 230 can score.
Who do you see ‘Sin City’ leaving with gold this weekend wrapped in their waist?
