Chaves para a vitória
Alexander Volkov
- Utilize his 80-inch reach to establish distance with the jab and punish Kuniev before he can close the gap.
- Land heavy low kicks and body shots early to slow Kuniev's forward momentum and keep him guessing.
- Avoid prolonged clinch exchanges where Kuniev's Sanda background and physical strength become decisive factors.
Rizvan Kuniev
- Close the distance aggressively behind a high guard to nullify Volkov's reach and enter the clinch.
- Use his Sanda-based clinch work to land knees to the body and force Volkov into uncomfortable scrambles.
- Target Volkov's body early to drain his output and make him easier to walk down in the championship rounds.
