Favourite pick for Kantemir Kalajokov in the battle against Nabi Gajyev and Denis Pogodin
Win Big at Top Dog! Get ready, fight fans! The 36th tournament of the Top Dog fist fighting league is going down in St. Petersburg on May 10th. The main event is a welterweight title battle between Nabii "Ganibal" Gadzhiev and Denis Pogodin, and we've got the insights straight from the division leader, Kanteimir Kalajokov!
According to UDAR channel reports, Kalajokov predicts a victory for his buddy Nabii. Despite their friendship, he confidently claims that Ganibal's current form and Pogodin's two-year break could tip the scales in Ganibal's favor. Let's dive into what makes each fighter tick:
Gadzhiev, who previously claimed the championship belt at Top Dog 31, bested Alexander "Pitbull" Tatarinsky in a hard-fought victory. On the other hand, Pogodin, a former division leader, has been on a two-year hiatus.
However, Pogodin is sure to test Ganibal's mettle. As Kalajokov points out, Pogodin's keen senses and excellent boxing skills will make for an exciting match. But, in Kalajokov's eyes, Ganibal is currently operating at a higher level. With a already-won title fight under his belt, Ganibal seems intent on continuing his winning streak. He feels this upcoming battle won't pose too much of a challenge.
So, who will emerge victorious? Only time will tell. Be sure to follow the event and learn who your next Top Dog champion will be! Meanwhile, check out our sports analysts' betting and prediction piece before placing your wagers!
