Azerbaijani MMA fighter Mohammad Ali has explained why he chose the strongest opponent in the reality show "The Ultimate Fighter" (TUF), one of the most popular UFC projects.
Idman.Biz reports that Osman's choice of Artem Belakh, a tournament favorite and LFA champion, was not accidental.
"I chose the most dangerous opponent in TUF that everyone was afraid to fight, so that the remaining participants would be afraid of me", – said the Azerbaijani fighter.
Note that Mohammad Ali later defeated Artem Belakh in the first round with a chokehold, advancing to the semifinals of "The Ultimate Fighter" tournament.
