Asu Almbayev analyzed his opponent for the UFC main event and highlighted his own advantages.

"Kape is a formidable opponent. He is very experienced, has excellent cardio, and possesses powerful striking skills. He is also quite competent in grappling. I believe that the winner will be the one who can implement their game plan effectively and who is better prepared mentally. He has experienced both victories and defeats. While I am currently on a winning streak in the UFC, it ultimately comes down to who can emerge as the number one contender in our fight and who feels ready to compete for the title. I believe that person is me. I have earned this opportunity through hard work. I will demonstrate everything I am capable of and make the most of every second to achieve victory," said Asu in an interview with the UFC press service.
