Potential reality of UFC future
Recent UFC 294 event is a prove that UFC is going into that direction. Makhachev in his recent interview told Dagestani realities. Previously, gyms were full and boys dreamed of becoming wrestling champions. Now gyms are also full, but boys dream of becoming UFC champions. Not the richest region of the world, hardworking and hungry fighters - UFC watch out
P.S. I kinda laughed at Tom Bob

I laughed at wrestling Grizzly bears and hunting tigers for fun, and while announcing the long and never-ending name it was really hilarious I thank you because it really made my day, the UFC 294 is full of Dagestan fighters and most of them win this event except for Magomed Ankalaev a well-known Dagestan for sure, those Dagestan fighters are not the richest region but because of that they are hardworking for sure,
^ Yup totally agree . Lol... Those Russian bros from the mountains of Dagestan are a different breed. And tbh I'd like to see more of them come in and up the level in the UFC. Even the striking of the Dagestani guys who are strikers look way faster and hit way harder than the strikes if the UFC elite. Watch tapes of Umar and Usman Nurmagomedov.
For sure maybe their DNA was special and their striking-like Sharaputdin Magomedov was very fast his kicks were really lighting but for sure he doesn't have wrestling and his takedown defense was not that great but I guess in that fight he learned something from it and will return much stronger, and could surely adjust for his next fight

Jailton Almeida is mostly a grappler. But as we have seen in a couple of Lewis' fights in the UFC, sometimes MMA grappling and wrestling doesn't work on him. And really all he needs is one clean shot to starch any opponent.
It could have happened if Jailton Almeda did not have the power to overcome Lewis, for sure those grappling and wrestling would not have worked against him, but if Jailton Almeda could prove that he has strength and can lift up Derrick Lewis then for me will go with the fighter that has most aces in his sleeve to take care of his opponent,
