Magomedov vs. Lutterbach
Predictions: 13 of 13 Pending | Tied for 1st with 950 others
My question about him is: Can he offensively grapple ? Cuz if he can, I don't care how much of a can crusher he is, he has a chance against Shara.
Besides shara's attention grabbin look I don't understand at all the hype that's around him. His TDD is trash and his striking doesn't wow me either. The dude is prime to getting fraud checked the second anyone imposes a grappling heavy fight on him.

He beat Andreas Gustaffson and scored takedowns there too.
So I don't think Shara is a lock.

If he fights smart here, he has all the tools to get his hand raised. My only doubt is about his condition though. He is a very active fighter, so I don't know if he's 100% to get this fight or he just needs the money.
Anyway, I hope we get a great fight here.

Joilton Lutterbach, TKO, R3
Lutterbach has been very fun to watch and honestly didn't think he'd stay contracted to one promotion like UFC because of how much he likes to be active and test himself in different arts. Shara is a very lethal but Joilton has fought that already, not saying he can outstrip Shara but he can enough to mix things up. Joilton is not afraid to switch plans to win a fight, unless he catches Joilton early, there will be takedowns.
