UFC 215: Nunes v Shevchenko 2
UFC 215: Pedro vs Latifi

This is a very important clash for both fighters, as both Pedro and Safarov, in their last clash, have been handed their first professional loss, and both fighters need to bounce back and emerge victorious in order to further their careers. Pedro has a two-inch height advantage, but other than that, the stats are pretty much even.

Tyson Pedro's fighting is based on classic boxing and BJJ, and Safarov is the opposite, basing his fighting on traditional Sambo and wrestling. Both men are elite at what they focus on, and so it is hard to tell who has the upper edge fighting-wise.
