Next most difficult test for Bogdan Grad! After his brilliant Prelims debut in Riyad, the styrician MMA hunter this Saturday seems to be the first time in Baku on the Maincard of a UFC Fight Night. His opponent in the comeback in the toughest Martial Arts series in the world? Probably the most famous “mountain dweller” in Tadjikistan …
The country stands for fertile valleys, clear lakes, but above all: monumental mountains! The tops in Tajikistan rise more than 7000 meters, the Central Asian country on the historic Seidenstrasse is extremely popular with hikers, mountain climbers and other walking tourists. No wonder that a current UFC star shows his connection with his house and proudly calls himself “mountain residents” …
We are talking about Muhammad “Hillman” Naimov, 30 years old, in the world’s toughest and most powerful martial arts organizations in the world. In five fights, the spring weight collected four wins. Only in February did Naimov beat the Turk Kaan ofli during the UFC Fight Night in Riad. Impressive, but at the time big talking made a completely different in the prelims there …
“Ready to release the full potential”
Namely Bogdan! The Styrian, who had concluded a contract for four UFC fights via Ligaboss Dana White Contender Series, withdrew a brilliant show during the debut in Saudi Aarabia. His victory over the Brazilian Lucas Alexander was recognized by Dana White Höchst -Sehst as “Fight the Night”. This not only brought the “unleashed” of Austria a bonus of 50,000 dollars, but now even protects the “unleashed” in the capital of Azerbaijan and even participates in the Gala -Hoofdveld!
Naimov, who is a favorite on paper, is also waiting for more routine this Saturday. With 17 professional fights (15 wins, 2 defeats), two more than his opponent are available and is only a little younger on 29. The powerful, 1.73 meter-long Austro Power package therefore features confidence and would like to make nails with heads: “I have the greatest respect for Mohammed. But I am ready to unleash my full potential. The world should see that my last victory was no coincidence!”
Chance has hardly any space here
There can be no “chance”. Grad has always worked consistently on the Cage Olympus, everything was secondary to sport. He went through the martial arts talent that of the MMA Pioneers Gerhard and Michael Ettl in Austria in Graz, worked every day for hours, stable body and mind. So much so that the multiple black belt (BJJ, MMA) took a first bankrupt on the Contender Series-like Naimov-in Las Vegas and brought the necessary strength for the second attempt.
500,000 followers as “wages”?
Well, with the ETTLS such as mentors and trainers and Klaus Leutgebet from Leutbet Entertainment as a long -term sponsor, the next MMA Summit Storm starts. For this purpose, Naimov of course has to release a heavy Tajic test stone. “If he wants, I can also take over his followers,” grinning in the direction of the 500,000 Instagram supporters of the “Hillman”.
If you want to see all fights in the live stream on June 21, you can do this via the official UFC Fight Pass. In addition, the main card including Grad Fight is transferred to Dazn from 9 p.m.
