“Ian, as we could see, his entire division simply“ moved ”. He rightfully won the opportunity to hold the title fight and held it in his own way - calmly, collectedly, calmly and in every sense simply interrupted Jose Aldo. In my opinion, Peter won all the rounds, he pressed very confidently and by the end of the battle he simply crushed the opponent, ”RIA Novosti quoted Minakov as saying.
He noted that this victory can be considered the beginning of a long journey of Jan.
“Peter is a very tough and technical fighter with good striking techniques. And the UFC belt is not the last for him. I think that Yang can calmly hold the title for several years. I believe that this weight will remain with him for a long time, because I do not see any pronounced weaknesses in him. Before that, he fought with famous athletes, but he so confidently “moved” all these big names. It’s nice and interesting to watch him, ”added Minakov.
Ian knocked out Brazilian Jose Aldo in the fifth round and became the new UFC bantamweight champion. For the Russian, this victory was the 15th in MMA with one defeat.
Earlier, Oleg Taktarov said whether Yang can be compared in popularity with Nurmagomedov.
