Shore vs Sholinian Analysis and Prediction

Jack Shore (14-0) vs Liudvik Sholinian (9-1-1)

Bantamweight (135)

Jack Shore

Now facing his third scheduled opponent, both Said Nurmagomedov and Zviad Lazishvili pulling out, Shore faces the most favourable match-up of the lot. Last time out, the Welshman earned a hard-earned split decision draw against Hunter Azure. Although Azure isn’t a home brand name, he is a powerful wrestler with dangerous hands – and was an excellent litmus test regarding Shore’s ability. Against Sholinian, Shore will have the opportunity to try a couple of new tricks on the feet.

Liudvik Sholinian

A high pressure, low volume fighter, Liudvik Sholinian is best known for his upset TUF victory over Bantamweight favourite, Mitch Raposo. At a disadvantage on the feet, technically and athletically, Sholinian will, unfortunately, be counting on his ground game against a superior tactician. The Ukrainian holds a couple of scalps over decent competition, but the levels should be apparent when facing Shore.

Predicted Result: Shore Submission Round 3

Now facing his third scheduled opponent, both Said Nurmagomedov and Zviad Lazishvili pulling out, Shore faces the most favourable match-up of the lot. Liudvik Sholinian is best known for his upset TUF victory over Bantamweight favourite, Mitch Raposo. Unfortunately for the Ukrainian, he is at a disadvantage on the feet, technically and athletically, and will have to rely on his ground game against a slicker operator.
