Mukhamed Berkhamov vs Herman Terrado Prediction: Easy Walk for Cherkes

On the night of October 8th, the Bellator 300 anniversary tournament will take place in the United States. In one of the preliminary card bouts, Russian fighter Mukhamed Berkhamov will share the cage with American Herman Terrado. The bout will take place in the welterweight division.

Mukhamed Berkhamov

Mukhamed Berkhamov is a former ACA champion and former national grappling champion. Most of his wins were by submission. He also made his Bellator debut that way - he finished Jaleel Willis in the first round in 2019.

Then there were two bouts with the league's top contender, Lorenz Larkin, beautiful in their way. Their first fight was ruled a no contest when Larkin landed an illegal elbow to the back of Berkhamov's head, so he failed to recover. The result of their second confrontation was similar. Larkin again landed an elbow, but this time more accurately - right to the temple, knocking Mukhamed out. And this defeat was the first in the career of the Russian fighter.

Herman Terrado

Terrado is an unremarkable American fighter, although all but one of his victories came early. He has performed his entire career in minor leagues, with two exceptions. In 2013-2014, Terrado already joined Bellator, had two fights (a loss and a draw), was fired, and went to walk around small promotions again. In 2017, he was signed to the PFL, won his debut bout, suffered two losses, and got kicked out. Since August 2018, Herman Terrado has not performed.

Expert Betting Tips

The American is inferior to Berkhamov both in skills and anthropometry. His opponent was much weaker, and the long break made his fans unhappy.

Terrado can only rely on a lucky punch in the standing, but his chances are minimal. It will be in the beginning while he isn't tired, but he won't be fresh for long. The American is not good at defending against takedowns, while Berkhamov is excellent at holding them. We expect the Russian to quickly take the fight to the ground, where his opponent will have almost no chance of escaping.
