The day before Zverev won one of the most resounding victories in his career. In the semifinals of the tennis tournament of the Olympics in Tokyo, Alexander dealt with Novak Djokovic in three games (1-6, 6-3, 6-1). And this despite the fact that in the match against the first racket of the world, he lost a set and a break in the second game, but in the end he managed to pull out the fight. Before meeting with Djokovic, Zverev had no serious rivals at the Tokyo Olympics. The representative of Germany defeated all his previous opponents in two games. In the first round he dealt with Lu Yanxun (6-1, 6-3), in the second round he scored victories over Daniel Galan (6-2, 6-2). In the third round Zverev defeated Nikoloz Basilashvili (6-4, 7-6) and in the quarterfinals he defeated Jeremy Chardy (6-4, 6-1).
Sean Strickland is considered one of the most promising fighters in the organization in his middleweight division. His professional career in mixed martial arts began in 2008, with an overall record of 23 wins, three losses and one draw. In 2018 the American had an accident and took a two-year break from performing. However, this did not affect his results in any way and after his return he won all three meetings, defeating Christoph Jotko on points in the previous fight. The 30-year-old American fighter has an arsenal of different punches and a rather powerful punch (10 knockouts). In addition, he owns a brown Jiu-Jitsu belt and feels good on the ground (four wins by submission). Strickland moves well in the cage and calculates strength for the entire distance of the fight, which indicates good cardio. More UFC predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
