Matches to make after PFL Dubai

Sergey Bilostenniy upset Vadim Nemkov to capture the PFL heavyweight championship.

After the PFL Dubai mixed martial arts event at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, five intriguing matchups stand out for the main card winners. Sergey Bilostenniy, who upset Vadim Nemkov to claim the PFL heavyweight championship, will face Denis Goltsov next. Bilostenniy demonstrated a well-rounded technique, utilizing his jab effectively, potentially denting Nemkov's nose.

Should he successfully defend his title, the next logical opponent would be 2024 PFL heavyweight champion Goltsov, who recently defeated Maxwell Djantou Nana in their bout. In another notable clash, Patrick Habirora, known as "The Belgian Bomber," put on a dominant display, finishing Omar El Dafrawy with a guillotine choke submission.

The Belgian fighter has an impressive 10-0 record, with no losses in six fights, including a win over Oleg Popov. The final two suggested encounters involve Bilostenniy against Goltsov and Habirora against Umalatov.
