Zabit is doing a very good job of countering the jab and following with a long cross. I think when Kattar attacks he should finish with low kicks off his hands because Zabit pulls back and retreats quickly. Gotta slow him down

What a round. So technical #ufcmoscow

Crazy trip by @zabeast_mma but @CalvinKattar got outta that shit!!! Wow! @ufc #ufcmoscow

Kattar started finding his timing near the end of round 2 but I think he really needs to pick up the volume round 3. Can’t see him winning a decision in Russia so far.

Very impressive boxing by both guys. I like Kattar’s combos in the 3rd round. He has great fundamentals. I think we have a very different 5 rd fight and it’s a shame they could only get 3rds

Really wishing that was a 5 rounder.

Need to see Zabit in a 5 round fight #UFCMoscow

Zabit has no cardio and can’t go 5 rounds in main event? #Weak #TrackRunner

Wow! @ufc #UFCMoscow did NOT disappoint! Wish that main event was a 5 rd fight! Kattar & Zabit are both amazing & kudos on the striking creativity from Zabit!
