Ukrainian-Canadian fighter UFCSergey Sidey commented on the situation in the lightweight division of the American MMA promotion, Sports.kz reports with reference to Sport24.ru.
The day before, November 23, Russian Petr Yan defeated Brazilian Deiveson Figueredo and became a contender for a title fight in the bantamweight division.
However, Sidey sees other opponents for UFC champion, Georgian Merab Dvalishvili. “I think the UFC is organizing a Dvalishvili-O'Malley rematch, man. Merab is an amazing fighter and all, but I think the UFC wants O'Malley as champion. But if you want my honest opinion, when Umar Nurmagomedov fights any of them, he will take this fight,” Sidey said in an interview with Dylan Bowker.
