Kopylov avoids potential UFC release with comeback win

Roman Kopylov secured a crucial victory against Marco Tulio, potentially saving himself from being cut from the UFC roster after two consecutive losses. Kopylov lost the first one and a half rounds before rallying to score three knockdowns, bringing his career total to nine knockdowns in the UFC. Despite possessing exceptional speed, technique, and powerful strikes from both hands and feet, along with an extensive amateur background, Kopylov's 7-5 UFC record suggests he has not fully realized his potential in the promotion. The victory returns him to winning form and keeps his UFC career alive for now.
