"It's interesting. I feel like he's underestimating me. I feel like he's laughing, he's doing all these little things, but it's okay. He makes me feel like he’s not taking me seriously,” Green said.

The North American did not want to predict the method of his possible victory but believes he is fully capable of overcoming the Russian fighter's feared grappling.

“How do I think I win? I'm not God, I'm not Conor McGregor and I guess which round I'm going to win. However it happens, it happened. I just need to make it clear that I'm prepared for any situation I'm going through and that I make it exciting. It's all I know. In all the victories I've had, I've never made a prediction. I just know that I'm going to fight like hell. It's obvious that he's going to use wrestling, his takedowns, his pressure. These are things he does well, but I’m going to decipher him”, concluded Bobby
