He won't fight Smakici, which is good for Smakici because he will be spared a beating, he is fighting with a cruiserweight.
Horrible mismatch. Why not Takam vs Wright, and Makhmudov vs Bakole? Takam has earned a softer opponent after fighting top contenders during the past decade. And Bakole vs Makhmudov would be a fine matchup.
For as much hype as Mak is getting he is fighting the worst heavyweight on this card. Makes no sense.
Somehow, I don't consider Kabayel that good, he is at the European level, Makhmudov would have no problem knocking him out...
Good for Makhmudov. he is very active compare to other HW's. He is fighting 6th time in the past 18 months.
