Magomed Magomedov bes. Leandro Higo Entscheidung (geteilt) · R3 5:00

This 137-pound catchweight bout (due to Magomedov missing weight by 0.8 pounds) was a highly competitive back-and-forth grappling and striking affair. Leandro Higo showed his veteran experience, finding moments of success with submissions and forward pressure, but Magomed Magomedov largely controlled the pacing and landed the more impactful strikes during their exchanges. The fight was a grueling tactical battle that went the full 15 minutes. Ultimately, the judges were split, but Magomedov was awarded the split decision victory (30-27, 28-29, 30-27).

Kampf-Übersicht

This bantamweight matchup carries a layer of unfinished business: Magomedov and Higo were originally booked to meet in the 2025 PFL quarterfinals before Magomedov withdrew with an injury, postponing the encounter for over a year. Magomedov, the Dagestani submission specialist with 10 career submission victories, enters on a loss — knocked out by Sergio Pettis via spinning back elbow in October 2025 — while Higo, a BJJ black belt with 13 submission wins, is also coming off a split decision loss in his 2025 PFL quarterfinal, setting up a critical regular-season fight between two men whose grappling-first games are remarkably well-matched.

Schlüssel zum Sieg

Magomed Magomedov

  1. Clinch early and force dirty boxing exchanges where his Dagestani wrestling base allows him to secure trips and drag the fight to the mat.
  2. Advance position relentlessly on the ground rather than settling for control, hunting chokes and arm attacks from top and side control.
  3. Stay composed after the Pettis KO exposed susceptibility to counters, level-changing rather than telegraphing entries into takedowns.

Leandro Higo

  1. Avoid a pure grappling match with a Dagestani wrestler by keeping distance and forcing Magomedov to commit to single-leg shots that can be stuffed and countered.
  2. Immediately look for triangle and armbar setups when the fight hits the ground rather than passively defending Magomedov's pressure.
  3. Use his reach to land the first strike in exchanges and establish a jab-based pace that disrupts Magomedov's rhythm before takedown attempts are initiated.
