Ikram Aliskerov Faces Former Champ In UFC Saudi Arabia Main Event
5 months agoIkram Aliskerov (15-1) is getting a massive opportunity as he stepped up on short notice to headline UFC Saudi Arabia against Robert Whittaker. Aliskerov was supposed to fight last weekend against Antonio Trocoli but after Khamzat Chimaev was out of the bout, Aliskerov took the fight against Whittaker on short notice. Aliskerov is 2-0 in the UFC and enters the bout against Whittaker as the underdog as DraftKings has him at a salary of $7,800. Both of Aliskerov's wins in the UFC came by first-round knockout and if he can beat Whittaker, the Russian would be a win away from a title shot.
