Bazinyan vs. Godoy

Ramirez vs. Ziiatdinov
Artur Ziiatdinov, DEC
win

Horrible fight for Bazinyan it feels like he's going backwards in terms of progress. I understand that he's young and isn't chasing the biggest fights but there is plenty that could progress him more the Godoy. Godoy has been fighting fighters with 6-9 and 13-42 records. Whenever he steps up he gets beat. Hasn't had a decent win since he fought Diego Gallardo in 2018 even since Gallardo is on 4 fight L streak. I would prefer matching Bazinyan against fighters like Murdock or Gongora or even Agbeko. Slow rolling him like this whilst he's in the top 3 of every single sanctioning body is not helping his career he will end up being the next Jamie Munguia at this point. I like Bazinyan but career is being badly managed.

Earlier in his carreer, Ziiatdinov was signed with EOTTM.
Now he's coming back to haunt in former promoter. He is a good fighter but i feel like Ramirez will edge more rounds. Ramirez 96-94

I broke it down the same way he's very skilled in his defense, and activity. since he is going to light heavy to meet Ramirez I have to give a slight edge to Ramirez for his power and size. I believe  its pretty close.
