Fight Nights Global 91: Kopylov vs. Enomoto - December 27 (OFFICIAL DISCUSSION)

Roman Kopylov (7-0) will defend his title against former M-1 Global welterweight champion, Yasubey Enomoto (18-10) at the upcoming co-promoted FNG-GTC event in Moscow December, 27.

Kopylov is a four-time hand-to-hand combat fighting world champion. That background has made him a very bright talent and given him the potential to be the future of Russian MMA. He’s beaten stiff competition where his seven foes have a combined record of 76-46. Kopylov is quite the advanced striker on the feet favoring combinations with up to four strikes at a time. His ability to cover the distance with kicks and step-in knees are fanatically done. Kopylov is a very methodical fighter with excellent fight IQ and vision and there is no doubt he is one of the best prospects in not just Russia but the world.

Enomoto was former M-1 Global welterweight championand  the runner up of the Sengoku Welterweight Grand Prix Tournament.  In his last fight Enomoto faced Alexei Ivanov on August 22, 2018 at S-70: Plotforma Cup 2018. He won the fight via Ko in round 2.

I haven't seen Enomoto in a while.  Kind of forgot about him.  He was a potential rising star at one time.  He has kept busy and is still a really good fighter.  He's one two straight fights now.
