Abusupiyan Magomedov vs Joseph Pyfer Expert Betting Tips

Brunno Ferreira is going to fight Abusupiyan Magomedov. During his first fight in the UFC, experts and commentators thought that Magomedov's career would proceed more easily than it did. During his fight with Strickland, the confidence around him faded, exposing major weaknesses, especially in his output balance. Magomedov can start fights with a lot of energy and is quite effective when he puts in more effort, but he doesn't like getting hit. His stiff stance makes him especially open to incoming hits, which is a bad thing when you're up against a strong knockout artist like Ferreira. This, together with Ferreira's height advantage, puts Magomedov at a disadvantage against Ferreira's strong overhand attacks. Magomedov has a reach advantage over Ferreira, which could help him if he uses his jab to set up a defensive countermeasure. This could protect him against Ferreira's powerful single punches. Ferreira generally finishes fights in the first round, which is a big deal because he has only made it to the second round once in his career. If he has to fight in the later rounds, this makes me wonder how tough he is. Ferreira is still an aggressive attacker with a lot of strength in his strikes, which may be enough to beat Abus. But there is still some doubt about Ferreira's capacity to win if Abus takes a strategic, long-term approach, as Ferreira tends to back down and lean when he is under pressure. Since losing to Strickland, Abus has gotten better, and I think he has learnt a lot that will be clear. Give me Abus Magomedov to stay calm and collected in the opening round and then steadily wear down Ferreira in the subsequent rounds.
