This is a fight that actually might happen, since Anderson's promoter is Makhmudov's co-promoter. Who would win? This content is protected
Both guys are KO's waiting to happen. Anderson has better fundamentals than Makhmudov, but his defense is a bit worse. I think Anderson lands before Makhmudov does. He knows how to set up punches better, while Makhmudov have no idea how to set up shots.
No matter how much potential Anderson has, I think that right now Makhmudov is too much for him, Anderson could win by SD, but right now everything points to that, Makhmudov would probably win...
Anderson is the better boxer, but I can see Mak catching him with a right hand when leaning back and knocking him on his ass. As overrated as I think Mak his, he has the style to beat Anderson.
Anderson can’t fight off the back foot and Mak will be backing him up. I foresee a Mak uppercut doing the damage.
Mak loves to time his punches, Jared got caught a few times from timed punches in his last two fights, both exciting prospects but I think it's a tactical mismatch.
Those short, quick, hard punches from Makhmudov are difficult to avoid. Flawless punching technique. Something the EE fighters are changing the game with. He's a lot bigger that Anderson too. Anderson wouldn't be able to keep him off.
Makhmudov sucks in terms of talent but he doesn't rely on talent. He relies on brute force and sooner or late he's going to overwhelm you
