Sharabutdin Magomedov - Michel Pereira: betting tip (cf 1.25) and bets on the fight

Current form

Sharabutdin Magomedov won a landslide victory over Marc-Andre Barrio in the previous match on June 26, 2025. Their meeting turned out to be intense and competitive, and the Russian managed to tip the scales in his favor by a unanimous decision of the judges. Moreover, the fight was recognized as one of the best in the tournament, and Magomedov received a well-deserved bonus.

This success allowed him to close an unpleasant page in his career related to his first professional defeat. In February, the Russian lost to Michael Page after three rounds. For many, this result turned out to be unexpected, because before that Magomedov confidently went undefeated and looked like one of the most promising fighters in the division.

Even despite the setback with Page, Shara's recent performances cannot be called weak. Before that, he effectively knocked out Armen Petrosyan in the second round, confidently dealt with Michal Alekseychuk on points and stopped Antonio Trocoli ahead of schedule in the third round.  The Russian is gradually adapting to the UFC level and continues to develop as a versatile striker. The statistics also speak for themselves. The 32-year-old fighter has 20 wins and only one defeat. Moreover, he ended fights with knockouts 15 times. Prior to signing a contract with the UFC, Magomedov successfully performed in the Russian promotions AMC Fight Nights Global and RCC, and also fought in China. In addition, he became the winner of the Grand Prix of the Nashe Delo organization and won the prestigious Russian Open Thai boxing tournament.

A few years ago, Michel Pereira was considered one of the most unpredictable and spectacular fighters in the UFC. His exits into the cage were almost always accompanied by acrobatic elements, and the audience was waiting with interest for another crazy trick. However, now the situation does not look so rosy. In his last fight on February 21, 2026, the Brazilian defeated Zach Reese by split decision. At the same time, many experts and fans felt that it was the American who did enough to win. Anyway, the official result turned out to be in favor of Pereira, which allowed him to interrupt a series of unsuccessful performances.

Before that, things were extremely difficult for Michel. At first, he suffered a heavy defeat from Anthony Hernandez, who literally dominated the entire fight and ended it ahead of schedule in the first round. This was followed by a setback in a duel against Abus Magomedov, where the Brazilian did not look his best. Another blow to his reputation was the knockout from Kyle Daukaus last summer.

Nevertheless, it would be a mistake to write Pereira off. The Brazilian has a lot of experience, dozens of professional fights and solid statistics. He has 32 wins to his credit, and he is equally dangerous both in the stand and in the stalls. Pereira won 11 times by knockouts, 11 more by judges' decisions, and nine wins by receptions.

Before joining the UFC, he managed to perform in several well-known organizations around the world and even owned the Serbian Battle Championship belt. Before joining the UFC in 2019, he also tried his hand at 300 Sparta, Akhmat Fight Club, Serbian Battle Championship, Jungle Fight, Xtreme Fighting Championships and Road Fighting Championship.
