On December 23rd the ACA 150 tournament will take place at the CSKA Arena with a crowd of thousands. The ACA 150 tournament will feature a battle between Kyrgyz Alimardan Abdykaarov and Brazilian Francisco De Lima Maciel. Alimardan Abdykaarov and Francisco de Lima Maciel will meet in the lightest category. Can the promising Kyrgyz get a second victory in a row under the banner of the strongest Russian organization?
Bookmakers are wrong to write off the experienced Brazilian. After all, Francisco’s level of opposition was much higher, and he’s also a more balanced fighter than Alimardan. De Lima should have a definite advantage on the ground because he is a dangerous jitzer. In the standup, he can also compete with his good wrestling technique and solid punches.
The fighter from Bishkek has been a professional fighter since 2015. He has 17 wins, seven losses, and one draw to his credit. He made his ACA debut this November. He defeated Maycon ‘’Boca’’ Silvan by unanimous decision of the judges. Before signing the contract with the leading Russian league, the 27-year-old fighter was active in the local WEF promotion. He also was in OFC and in Kazakhstan’s Alash Pride association.
He prefers to fight in a standup position, ripping his opponents apart and damaging them with his heavy punches. Alimardan managed to knock out 11 opponents, however, he lost seven of them early (4 KO’s, 3 Submissions).
The experienced 34-year-old Brazilian athlete Francisco Maciel has been fighting in Russia since 2018. His first league was ACB, and then he went on to perform under the ACA banner. He has such significant scalps as Oleg Borisov, Magomed ‘’Tarantul’’ Gadzhiev, and Nikita ‘’Piranha’’ Chistyakov. At the same time, he lost to most of the tops of his division.
Surprisingly, South American’s record is the same as that of Abdykaarov. Maciel also has 25 fights under his belt (17-7-1). In the cage, “de Assis” relies on his boxing skills and skills in Brazilian jiu-jitsu (black belt).
