Despite taking time off due to injury, Vettori is ranked eighth in the middleweight rankings. Dolidze is ranked twelfth but has seen improvements in his game. He believes altering his style and emotions can play a factor against an inactive game opponent.
“He hasn’t fought in a long time,” Dolidze said via MMA Junkie. “Everybody says maybe it’s bad for him, he hasn’t fought in so long. But I never think about the fights from this point of view. I just understand that we are all changing, evolving. Maybe he has time to change something in his game.
“But anyway, I still think this fight can be the same, how he was working and what he was doing with me. Because I have power. He knows. Everybody knows I’m powerful. Everybody knows my ground game and grappling. That’s why it’s always hard to find keys with me. But I still think that I need to be more calm and control my anger, and that’s the key to win this fight.”
