Magomed Ankalaev most recently made an appearance inside the fabled Octagon last month during UFC 320 inside T-Mobile Arena in Enterprise, NV. His opponent that first Saturday night of October was Alex Pereira. At stake: The UFC Light Heavyweight Championship.
Chapter two of the story ended on the sourest of notes for Magomed Ankalaev. Although the first contest resulted in an Ankalaev win by decision, the renewal of hostilities saw “Poatan” win gold in the 205-lb division.
A minute and 20 seconds was all it took for Ankalaev to surrender light heavyweight supremacy to the former GLORY Kickboxing great.
