Misha Cirkunov

- Record: 15-8-0

Born in Latvia, Misha Cirkunov has been an athlete since childhood and as a teenager he was already leaning towards contact disciplines: he practiced judo, Greco-Roman wrestling, wrestling, and finally jiu-jitsu, which opened the doors to mixed martial arts. Professional since 2010, five years later he became involved with Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).
The Latvian got off to a good start in the franchise, with four consecutive wins, but then he fell off the rails: since 2017, he won two fights and lost five. He has two straight losses: a KO with just over a minute left in the fight to Ryan Spann and a split decision loss to Poland’s Krzysztof Jotko.
Alonzo Menifield
- Odds: -215
- Record: 12-3-0
- Age: 34
- Height: 1.83 m
- Weight: 92 kg
- Reach: 193 cm
Alonzo Menifield is also known as Atomic, and, since joining the UFC, he has lost three of his eight fights. However, he is coming off an excellent performance last June, when he knocked out Askar Mozharov of Ukraine in one round.
At 34, the Los Angeles, California native has a background as a standout soccer player before turning to mixed martial arts, and he made his professional debut in 2015. A win will surely put him in good shape in the light heavyweight rankings.
JefeBet Prediction
Misha Cirkunov entered a spiral of defeats from which it is difficult for him to get out. And in this Misha Cirkunov vs Alonzo Menifield, he will face an Alonzo Menifield who comes in confident and with the great support of having knocked out a few months ago. That is why at JefeBet we believe that the Californian will have no problem to come out a winner before going to the cards.
Prediction: Alonzo Menifield wins by submission.
