Alexander Romanov came to the UFC straight from the Moldovan promotions and initially impressed everyone with five straight wins, four of them early.
However, as the level of opposition rose, things stalled - Marcin Tybura beat him in a very close fight, but Alexander Volkov had no problems and knocked out his namesake in the first round.
Romanov's last fight was against Blagoy Ivanov, and the first two rounds were very close. But then the Bulgarian lost his stamina and started missing shots unnecessarily, and the judges finally gave the victory to Alexander.
Jailton Almeida
Jailton Almeida joined the UFC in 2022, and the league was counting on him to be a big star.
Well, you can bet that the guy started with six straight tough wins, five of them early - only Derrick Lewis somehow managed to live to see the final bell.
This was before his fight with Curtis Blaydes, where he was a big favorite, but something went wrong. On another attempted takedown, Almeida grabbed his opponent's leg and, not thinking long enough, landed a blow that knocked Jailton unconscious.
Expert Betting Tips
Despite the unpleasantness of his last fight, Jailton Almeida is the favorite. Unimpressive fights with Lewis and Blaydes have tarnished his reputation, making it all the more difficult for Romanov.
The fight will take place on the parterre. We do not expect anything supernatural from Alexander. He always works modestly, like a machine, but the angry Brazilian is able to add. Almeida will take this fight, one way or another, and we're willing to take a chance on him winning by stoppage—in the later rounds, Romanov tends to lose a lot of cardio, especially under pressure.
