Russian Makkasharip Zainukov can be safely called a veteran of MMA tournaments. He has been performing in them since 2013. He is tall enough for a lightweight, so his height determined his technical base. Zainukov uses a purely boxing technique in combat, slightly diluted with the emphasis of hand-to-hand combat. In close combat, a fighter sometimes recalls the lessons of sambo, clearly passed in his youth.
American Dedrek Sanders is older than his opponent, but came to MMA later than him. In terms of the number of fights he has fought, he is inferior to him by a third. Sanders is the same all-rounder as the Russian.
During most of the fight, athletes will work in a stand, remembering wrestling techniques only according to the situation. The technical training of the opponents is approximately equal, so their functional training will come to the fore. The winner is the one who keeps fresh in the third round.
