    A crappy fight for Jalolov, an opponent who was stopped even by Alen Babic, Jalolov should at least fight someone like Yoka...

    He plans on fighting 5 times next year so hopefully by the end of it he will be vying for a title shot

    Pulev is fighting Charr

    Jalolov can fight anyone in top 30. At least make him fight Miller

    Probably to get him back into action and to get his name out there. Plus every big name seems to be tied up at the moment and Jalolov isn´t connected in any way to the Saudi scene.
    Activity is the best for exposure, regardless of opposition. If Jalolov fights 5 times next year then everyone will end up talking about him, thats how this sport works.

    I'll believe Jalolov fights 5x in a year when I see it. A 30yo Jalolov fighting Babic's leftovers is not a great look.

    Hopefully his team are working on a legitimate opponent 2-3 months after this tune-up.

    Backdoor Jalalov needs to start fighting good comp and fast.

    Could be legit but nobody knows yet.
    Amateurs don't count for a lot in the pro ranks
