Mario Bautista is not sold at Umar Nurmagomedov and has a good time during his training camp for UFC 321.
Bautista and Nurmagomedov are planned to collide in Abu Dhabi on 25 October. The crucial bantamweight scrap will be shown on the same map with a UFC Heavyweight Championship battle between title holder Tom Aspinall and Ciryl Gane. Bautista hopes to be poet than ever at a shot on the gold of 135 pounds, and a victory over Nurmagomedov would certainly shake things up.
The aim of Nurmagomedov is to rebound after being inadequate in his bid in the Bantamweight title against Merab Dvalishvili in January. During an interview with Mmajunkie.comBautista shared his conviction that Nurmagomedov is not exactly comfortable in preparation for their crucial matchup.
“We don’t think they are invincible,” Bautista told MMA Junkie of the Nurmagomedov team. “They are great grapplers – they are all good. Usman is the champion there, but it may just be that Khabib is a buckier, and is just so great. Everyone expects the rest that is just the case, which is not the case. I think we have all the tools, all the guys for this to prepare us for this and who knows?
“I don’t expect this camp to be a good thing for him, because someone like Khabib will probably just push him directly, only because of what happened in the last fight. Ok, you had that problem, we’re going to push your hard. So I don’t think it’s a good camp for Umar.”
Nurmagomedov will enter UFC 321 if the Bantam weight no. 2 arranged. Bautista has the No. 8 place and would catapult itself to a top five ranking list if he can win the victory over Nurmagomedov. The person who comes to the fore can argue for the winner of Dvalishvili vs. Cory Sandhagen to combat, that is planned for UFC 320.
