This is an average, fairly tough fighter who isn't exactly a star but isn't easy prey for anyone. Before his UFC appearance, Emmers had fought all over the place, even making an appearance in the Russian league of M-1 Global in 2019. He fought in the strongest promotion three times, winning one fight.
Khusein Askhabov
Chechen fighter Khusein Askhabov has not lived in Russia for more than ten years, and he will enter his first fight in the UFC with the UAE flag. He has fought in local European promotions and became the Ukrainian WWFC league champion. He was looking for a fight in the Contender Series but couldn't find an opponent.
A very quick, well-trained puncher with good wrestling, he won most of his victories early, and in his last fight so far, he knocked out Yusup Visaitov with a flying knee in the first round.
On the downside, the opposition is very weak. Most of the opponents he has beaten have almost negative records (although there are some), and how he will fare in the strongest league in the world is quite intriguing.
Honestly, I've been waiting for this moment for a very long time. I've been competing for a long time, and I've wanted to get into the UFC for a long time. It's a good feeling right now. Many people have been writing, worrying, and cheering for the last week. Of course, I want to please them. On February 19, we will show a very good fight.
Expert Betting Tips
The first fight in the strongest league in the world is a separate story and a serious test. Askhabov will try to impress Dana White (he says so outright) and finish the fight early. On the other hand, Jamall Emmers is not a whipping boy and is quite capable of catching his fidgeting opponent making a mistake. Therefore, an early end to the fight seems logical, finishing his opponent either way.
