The Ultimate Fighting Championship’s latest visit to Russia only confirmed what everyone suspected: Zabit Magomedsharipov has become a serious problem for the rest of the featherweight division.
The former Absolute Championship Berkut titleholder posted his 14th straight victory and continued to present himself as a growing threat at 145 pounds, as he took a unanimous decision from Calvin Kattar in the UFC Fight Night 163 headliner on Saturday at CSKA Arena in Moscow. All three cageside judges scored it the same: 29-28 for Magomedsharipov, who pushed his perfect record inside the Octagon to 6-0.
