"It's a pity Bekzat couldn't finish". A famous Kazakh trainer spoke about Almakhan's fight with Nurmagomedov

Aibek Shokputov, a famous Kazakh trainer, commented on Almakhan's defeat in the fight with Nurmagomedov.

"Before the fight, everyone understood that Nurmagomedov is the favorite. But Bekzat did great, was able to hook Umar in the forehead with a good punch at the beginning of the fight. Too bad he couldn't finish him. Umar quickly gathered himself and worked his way back to his feet. It was clear that Nurmagomedov's wrestling is at a high level, because he has someone to learn from. Plus, he's naturally so flexible and agile. Bekzat had a chance in his right hand, but it did not work," - stated the specialist.

Recall, the confrontation between Bekzat Almakhan and Umar Nurmagomedov took place on the morning of March 3 in Las Vegas at UFC Fight Night 238, ending with Umar's victory by unanimous decision of the judges.
