This card promises to be exciting. The main event will for sure be a banger, but we've got a few other fights that everyone should be looking forward to. There's a Nurmagomedov on the card, a last name plenty of casual viewers should be familiar with despite no relation to Khabib. Michael Johnson, a longtime veteran and legend of the game will face the Australian youngster Jamie Mullarkey in what promises to be a standup battle that ends in knockout. Newcomer Caio Borralho faces Armen Petrosyan in a technical battle including lots of hard strikes landing from clinches and eventual bloodshed.
Finally, in the main event, the battle of Rafaels. Rafael dos Anjos is a vet with a storied career and the kind of rivalries you tell your kids about. Rafael Fiziev is an up-and-comer with great kickboxing and heavy hands. He's been in some wars already; just check out his fight against Bobby Green:
