UFC 321, which took place in Abu Dhabi, featured a variety of great moments and hard finishes. One of them was the responsibility of Azamat Murzakanov, who knocked out Rakice from the first round and, as an undefeated fighter, claimed a big match.
“Everyone doubted me, but I said that it would come back to them. I had a clear plan to finish Rakic and I succeeded. I am very happy that I delivered what I promised. I thank everyone for the support. I also thank the organization for giving me a chance. I said that I would fight for the title.” Murzakanov rejoiced after his win over Rakic.
“What now? I definitely want to fight for a chance at the title. I want number one,” reported Murzakanov, pointing to Jiří Procházka, who is currently in first place, right behind champion Pereira. Will we see a fight between Procházka and Murzakanov? Probably not yet, because Ulberg deserves a similar duel more, but if Azamat adds one more win, he could be damn close.
