Makkasharip Zaynukov vs Dedrek Sanders Prediction: the fight will drag on

Prediction for the MMA match which will take place on October 19. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Makkasharip Zaynukov is on a streak of four straight wins, the last two coming in the RCC where he managed to defeat Timur Nagibin (by injury) and Ali Kabdulla (by unanimous decision). Makkasharip is quite an experienced fighter, in his career he entered the cage against such guys as Mehdi Dakaev, Nurullo Aliev, Nariman Abbasov, Roman Bogatov (by the way, it was them he lost to, there are no other defeats in his record).

34-year-old American Dedrek Sanders is an unremarkable fighter with a 9-4 record. But he does have one fight in the PFL - in August he faced a similarly middling Sergio Cossio (9-4) and knocked him out in the first round.

Sanders hasn't seen serious opposition yet, unless you count former UFC fighter Luis Peña, to whom he lost safely at the Aries Fight Series.

Neither Zaynukov nor Sanders are finishers, so we don't expect fire in this confrontation. The Russian fighter is the obvious favorite, but Makkasharip is not noted for hunting for an early decision, he wins, as a rule, confidently and irreversibly. Most likely, and this time he will not risk taking the fight, trying not to make mistakes.
