In this year’s Welterweight World Championship, last season’s champion, Sweden’s Sadibou Sy will take on 2018 champion, Russia’s Magomed Magomedkerimov. When these 2 welterweight elites faced off in the 2021 playoffs, Magomedkerimov wrestled his way to a one-sided decision. However, things are going to be much different this year as the 2022 champion, Sy has substantially improved his overall game, especially his grappling, which helped him win the belt last year and has brought him back to the finals this time around.
Both fighters looked spectacular in their regular season fights, finishing their respective opponents handily, and then fought their way to decision wins in the playoffs. Watch live on November 24, to find out if “The Swedish Denzel” will be able to stick to his gameplan and avenge his 2021 loss, or if the crafty Magomedkerimov will once again taste gold and receive another million dollar check.
