Magomed Ankalaev Dagestan born and raised had his best PERFORMANCE of his life fighting Ion Cutebela in the rematch. UFC Light Heavyweight Division is there for the taking and Magomed Ankalaev can be a future Light Heavyweight Champion.
14-1 record at 28 years old, Ankalaev is a rising UFC Light Heavyweight to keep an eye on for the present and future.
May be we can see one more performance before 2020 ends fighting Nikita Krylov or Volkan Oezdemir. Each of those fights will be fantastic fights to watch. Kyrlov defeated Johnny Walker, Volkan was a former Light Heavyweight Title Challenger with a decent name.
Either way next fight should be 6-10 range on a PPV Main Card Slot again because he has an exciting fighting style to watch.
One more fight needed and Magomed Ankalaev will be UFC Light Heavyweight Contender.
2021 Ankalaev can fight the whose who of Thiago Santos which will be a GREAT fight to watch on paper, Dominick Reyes which won’t be a three round fight or a fight against Jiri Prochazka.
