Imavov entered the battle with a report of 13-4 and one No Contest and was coming off a majority determination win over Roman Dolidze. The Frenchman was ranked seventh at middleweight and was 5-2 and one No Contest going into the battle. Cannonier, in the meantime, was ranked fourth and was coming off a choice win over Marvin Vettori a yr in the past.
Finally, ultimately, it was Imavov who received by fourth-round stoppage in controversial style as many thought it was an early stoppage by Jason Herzog. Following UFC Louisville, here’s what I believe needs to be subsequent for each fighters concerned in the principle occasion.
