He received training from Team Alpha Male and previously accompanied Viacheslav Borschev in sparring. Anticipate a thrilling UFC debut from him. Orolbai is 5’10” tall.
Uros Medic will need to modify his approach significantly to match Orolbai’s, as he was initially gearing up for a fight versus Jonny Parsons, a fighter entirely different from him. Nevertheless, Uros Medic needs to remain focused and not underestimate his opponent’s strength in this battle. As he looks for his finishing blow, defense will be crucial.
Medic has proven his worth on numerous occasions by pulling off hard fought wins when necessary and competing effectively within war zones. Additionally, he’s shown an ability to pick his shots strategically and focus on sticking to what works for him during a fight like this one.
