Claim Your Welcome Bonus!Denis Tiuliulin
Sean Strickland's sparring partner unexpectedly broke into the UFC in March 2022 against Aliaskhab Khizriev. It was not a successful debut, as Tiuliulin was submitted by choke in the second round.
Denis defeated Jamie Pickett by technical knockout and lost to Park Jun-Yong by submission. The fight with Rodriguez will be Tiuliulin's fourth fight under contract, which means he only needs to win to get a new contract with the promotion.
This time Denis changed camps and trained with Fedor Emelianenko's team. Often he has problems with opponents, but this time his opponent will be a Brazilian puncher, significantly increasing his chances of success.
Gregory Rodrigues
The 31-year-old Brazilian has six bouts in the UFC. Rodriguez performs consistently: he wins twice and then loses. In his last fight, Robocop was knocked out by Bruno Ferreira in the first round at UFC 283.
The Brazilian likes to make a fight inside the octagon, so most of his bouts end early. Rodriguez, like Tiuliulin, doesn't like wrestling.
Expert Betting Tips
The fight will be challenging for the Russian fighter. The bookmakers have Denis as an actual favorite, but the odds are not fair. Two punchers will meet in this fight, and the more accurate one will win. We're guaranteed an early finish, but the outcome will not be decided in the first seconds.
