Magomed Ankalaev lost his first UFC fight to man who is now a professional wrestler

Magomed Ankalaev was forced to type in his first UFC fight when he went against each other with a vicious entry artist.

Almost seven years after that night, the Russian cemented its place as one of the most intimidating competitors on the planet.

With a shot against Alex Pereira for slightly heavyweight gold planned for 8 March, on UFC 313, Ankalaev is about to break a Jon Jones record.

This makes the fact that his first game in the Achthoek ended in the defeat, even more remarkable.

Magomed Ankalaev lost to Paul Craig through submission

On March 17, 2018, Magomed Ankalaev went against each other with Paul Craig in an epic match in the O2 Arena in London, the UK.

In a huge display, the debutant did almost everything well, where the shot dismantled the Scotsman with his formidable skills.

After two comfortable rounds, Ankalaev went outside to dominate the third, what he did until everything went wrong.

With the game almost over, the Dagestani began to hit his rival on the canvas, with an interruption that was on his hands.

Then Craig suddenly locked up a triangular choke, forcing Ankalaev to tap the left with just a second.

The loss was a huge wake-up call for the loser, who then went back to the drawing board and has not lost since then.

In the meantime, Craig continued to add to his resume and beat Jamahal Hill and Shogun Rua.

Now he has entered a new world, participating in the insane championship struggling, where he has become an ICW tag champion.

Because Ankalaev has jumped on jumps and boundaries since his only loss in the UFC, many think he could have the perfect style to beat Pereira.

The couple goes the right in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, vs.

And after waiting for so long for his chance of the throne, the challenger does not stop in the trash.

With excitement to fight through his veins, Ankalaev Pereira has warned about what is to come.
