Fight History & Context
Salikhov is a decorated Wushu Sanda champion, known for spinning kicks and creative striking. Despite being 41, he remains dangerous with knockout power.
Medić has never gone the distance in his UFC career, making him one of the most volatile fighters in the division. His southpaw stance and volume striking present stylistic challenges for Salikhov.
Betting Trends
Salikhov: 3-0 in last 3 fights, 2 finishes.
Medić: 100% finish rate in wins, 2-0 in last 2 fights.
Both fighters trend toward early finishes; Medić has never seen the scorecards.
Salikhov has covered as an underdog in 2 of his last 3 fights.
Bottom Line: This is a classic youth vs. experience matchup. Salikhov’s creativity and counter-striking make him live as an underdog, but Medić’s pace, power, and finishing instincts give him the edge. Expect fireworks early, with Medić favored to secure another highlight-reel stoppage.
