In this video, I take you on a quick tour through the American Kickboxing Academy in Thailand — one of the most iconic MMA gyms in the world — and share my honest breakdown and prediction for the upcoming UFC Fight Night matchup between Yousri Belgaroui and Azamat Bekoev. Yousri Belgaroui — the former Levels Fight League middleweight champion and longtime Alex Pereira rival — is finally fighting in the UFC, but many are asking: Is he here only because of Pereira’s influence, or because of his own talent? In this video, I analyze both fighters in detail: • Yousri Belgaroui: a tall, rangy striker with an elite kickboxing background, beautiful jab, sharp calf and low kicks, explosive knees, and strong takedown defense thanks to years of training with Glover Teixeira. • Azamat Bekoev: a complete MMA fighter with powerful boxing (dangerous left hook and right overhand), excellent wrestling, and heavy ground-and-pound. Former LFA champion, known for finishing fights on the mat. I break down both possible fight scenarios — whether Yousri keeps the distance and breaks Bekoev down with kicks and jabs for a TKO, or if Bekoev closes the distance, lands takedowns, and finishes the fight with ground control or a submission. 💥 I also address the controversy: Does Yousri Belgaroui really deserve his UFC contract, or is this simply the “Alex Pereira effect”? My prediction: this fight will not go to a decision. Expect a finish — one way or another. 🔔 Subscribe for more UFC analysis, fight predictions, and behind-the-scenes insights from Thailand’s MMA scene and the American Kickboxing Academy. #mma #ufc #fighter #champion #warrior #yousri #belgaroui #danawhite #alexpereira #title #war
