LAS VEGAS – Laureano Staropoli sees similarities between his style and Roman Dolidze’s.

Staropoli (9-3 MMA, 2-2 UFC) will look to snap a two-fight losing skid when he returns to middleweight to face Dolidze (8-1 MMA, 2-1 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 189.

“I feel spectacular,” Staropoli told MMA Junkie at a pre-fight media session on Wednesday. “I feel that Roman and I have very similar styles of fighting, and it’s gonna be a war once we go into the octagon.”
