Sahil Siraj and Ahmed Abdulkadirov just clashed in a lightweight bout at KSW 87 in Trinec, Czech Republic.
The fight started off with Siraj throwing shots and kicks. Abdulkadirov went for a high kick which he missed, using the motion to go for a takedown. The two separated and continued exchanging strikes. Just when it seemed as if Siraj was starting to slow down he caught Abdulkadirov with a sucession of standing strikes, dropping his foe and finishing the fight in the very first round.
Sahil Siraj (9-2) improved to two straight wins against Ahmed Abdulkadirov (9-2) and holds a 2-1 record this year so far.
“He’s going to be ready for me, but I’m also ready for him. It’s going to be a great three round fight or a first round knockout. I’m ready for everything,” Siraj told Frontkick about his opponent prior to the fight.
Based on the results Siraj couldn’t have been more correct in his prediction.
Before this he most recently knocked out Patrik Pietilä at Fight Club Rush 16.
