Almabaev received advice on how to win the main fight in the UFC.

"If Asu can impose his fighting style, endure the damage inflicted by Kape, and continue to pressure and grapple, then Almaev has a great chance of winning. I've witnessed Maney's defeats against Kyoji Horiguchi, Aleksandre Pantoja, and Muhammad Mokaev. What did they do to secure victory? They persevered, took control, and turned the tide of the fight. Asu needs to do the same," said the expert.

Famous Kazakh mixed martial artist Sergey Morozov shared his thoughts with Sports.kz on the chances of victory in the fight between Kazakh Aso Almbayev (21-2) and Portuguese fighter Manel Kape (20-7).

— If Aso can impose his style of fighting, endure the damage that Kape will inflict, apply pressure, and engage in grappling, then Almbayev has a tremendous chance of winning. I have seen Manel's losses to Kyoji Horiguchi, Alexandre Pantoja, and Muhammad Mokaev. What did they do to secure victory? They endured, grappled, and turned the fight in their favor. Aso needs to do the same, — said the expert.

It is worth noting that this fight is set to take place in the main event of UFC Vegas 103 in Las Vegas (USA) on March 2nd.

The 31-year-old Almbayev will become the first Kazakh in history to compete in the main event of a UFC tournament. Prior to him, no Kazakh fighter has headlined a UFC event.
