BETTING PREVIEW | SCOUTING REPORT | ODDS: Abdullaev (-120); Nascimento (+100)Round 1
Native son Abdullayev looks to get the Baku crowd amped up against fellow debutant Nascimento in this welterweight matchup. Jim Perdios is the referee. Both men are orthodox to start things off, Nascimento sliding around the outside as Abdullayev stakes out the center of the cage. Nascimento is one stocky dude for this division. Nascimento reaches out with a low kick. Abdullayev answers with one of his own. The crowd gets loud for a moment, but through the first two minutes, this is a tentative affair. Abdullayev starts to come forward, switching stances and backing the Brazilian off, but there is still very little offense happening. Abdullayev touches the chest with a front kick. He is pursuing, but not cutting off the cage, and Nascimento is able to avoid being corralled. Abdullayev stalks forward and eats a jab to the body. Abdullayev, with 90 seconds to go in the round, raises his hands in a what-gives gesture as Nascimento continues to give ground. Abdullayev finally walks his man into the fence and explodes with a flurry of punches that mostly glance, but still represent the best offense of the round by either man. Nascimento clinches and spins Abdullayev into the fence. Perdios breaks them up and it looks like a low blow. He calls time-in and the horn sounds.Sherdog Scores

Round 2
They slap hands to open Round 2 and go back to work on the feet. Nascimento lands a calf kick. Abdullayev is again coming forward but struggling to close the distance. Nascimento retreats, then plants his feet and runs Abdullayev right onto a counter right. Abdullayev wades into the pocket and connects with an overhand right. Nascimento continues to slide around the outside of the cage, and Abdullayev chases, swinging that overhand right. Perdios stops the action and warns Abdullayev to keep his fingers tucked. At the midpoint of the round, Abdullayev is still marching forward, pawing with the lead hand, as the more mobile Brazilian uses lateral movement to play the matador. Nascimento again plants and meets Abdullayev with a counter right. Ninety seconds to go and it’s still a footrace with occasional punching. Abdullayev is getting more frustrated by the second and finally stands, throws his hands up and looks at the ref, who dutifully has a brief talk with Nascimento. In the last 30 seconds of the round, Abullayev runs forward, pins Nascimento against the fence and throws a long stream of punches, many of which land, one after the horn.Sherdog Scores

Round 3
Abdullayev comes out for Round 3 at a sprint, swinging with both hands. They collide and both men land a few shots, Abdullayev getting the better of it, and they spill to the ground. Abdullayev drops a few hammerfists, but Nascimento uses a single-leg to stand back up. They clinch near the center of the cage and Nascimento punishes the body with hooks from both hands. They disengage and Abdullayev enters the pocket, then drops levels for a nice double-leg, grounding the Brazilian with ease. He stands over him for a few seconds, then follows him to the ground, landing in half guard and dropping punches. Nascimento powers back to his feet and Abdullayev shoves him to the ground again with a hand to the chest. Abdullayev can’t secure top position, as Nascimento squirms and scoots, but eventually corrals him, ending up in full guard with two minutes to go. Nascimento closes his guard and controls Abdullayev’s posture, staving off any real ground-and-pound but also consigning himself to working from the bottom. With under a minute left in the fight, Abdullayev stands up out of Nascimento’s guard. He dives back in with a huge punch and Nascimento is hurt. The crowd erupts as their hometown fighter goes for broke. Nascimento is in survival mode but seems to be in control of his faculties when Perdios jumps in for the stop. It seems awfully early, and Nascimento gets up shaking his head in disbelief.The Official Result

BETTING PREVIEW | SCOUTING REPORT | ODDS: Matsumoto (-160); Almakhan (+135)Round 1
Maybe the best fight on the whole UFC Baku card despite being stuck in the early prelims, bantamweight up-and-comers Almakhan and Nascimento go to work under the watchful eye of referee Rich Mitchell. They touch gloves and go to work In matching orthodox stances. Almakhan steps forward and lands a jab. Matsumoto feints with the rear leg a few times, but doesn’t pull the trigger. Matsumoto goes upstairs with a kick that comes up short. Almakhan steps into the pocket and throws a flurry of punches that come up short. Matsumoto flicks out another high kick. Almakhan bursts forward with another glancing volley of punches. Two minutes in, Almakhan catches Matsumoto with a hard left hand that is the cleanest shot of the fight by either man so far. Matsumoto connects with a hard calf kick, then another, a few moments later. Almakhan checks the next one, and nails Matsumoto with a counter that takes him off his feet. Matsumoto springs back up but is hurt. He shoots for a takedown, which Almakhan defends, but gets a few crucial seconds to recover. Matsumoto is still hurt and recovering, but with a minute to go in the round, he steps forward, lands a pair of hooks and clinches, then drives Almakhan to the fence and works for a takedown. Almakhan defends well, but Matsumoto picks up and slams him right before the horn.Sherdog Scores

Badenoch blasts 'moaning' female Labour MPs over Burnham jobs 'quota'
Kemi Badenoch has told Labour women to earn a job in Andy Burnham's Cabinet instead of demanding they are handed jobs because of their gender.
The Tory leader lashed out today amid reports that female MPs are demanding the de-facto new prime minister introduce a 50:50 gender split 'quota' in his government.
Amid reports that former foreign secretary David Miliband is being lined up to return to the role, possibly with his brother Ed as Chancellor, one female minister also complained that Burnham could not have 'more Milibands than women' in the top posts.
But in a scathing article in the Times today Mrs Badenoch told them to 'stop moaning' and get chosen on merit instead of retreating into 'more of the failed identity politics that is holding back our country'.
'There are many, many reasons why you shouldn't have any Milibands in the cabinet,' she said.
'But complaining that the boys haven't given them the right jobs or that the boys are taking all the jobs, just shows that Labour's women still don't get it.'
The idea of quotas was also attacked by Baroness Jacqui Smith, Labour's Skills Minister.
Asked by Times Radio if Mr Burnham should reserve jobs for women, she said: 'No, I think what Andy Burnham should be doing is building the very best team around him to change this country.'
A letter written by the Women's Parliamentary Labour Party has called on Mr Burnham to ensure a 50:50 split between men and women in government jobs
Amid reports that former foreign secretary David Miliband (above, right, in 2010) is being lined up to return to the role, possibly with his brother Ed as Chancellor, one female minister complained that Burnham could not have 'more Milibands than women' in the top posts
But Mrs Badenoch told them to pipe down and get chosen on merit instead of retreating into 'more of the failed identity politics that is holding back our country'
A letter written by the Women's Parliamentary Labour Party and seen by the BBC has called on Mr Burnham to ensure a 50:50 split between men and women in government jobs after he succeeds Sir Keir Starmer.
'We are asking you to demonstrate this change from day one and address the toxicity and misogyny within our own party and government,' it said.
Labour has never had a female leader, while the Conservatives have had three, and Mrs Badenoch urged the government to follow its meritocratic example.
'If you run a meritocracy, then you do not have to worry about jobs for the boys,' she wrote.
'Every woman who is a Conservative MP, every woman who has ever won the leadership, has had to fight to get where she is.
'By contrast, Labour women are demanding guarantees from Burnham. But the truth is he doesn't have to give any guarantees.
'If none of Labour's women are prepared to get their hands dirty and challenge him for the leadership, their demands are toothless.'
'In fact, it's quite revealing that the women's parliamentary Labour Party has written to Burnham asking him to commit himself to at least 50 per cent female ministers.
'This has nothing to do with meritocracy. It is yet more of the failed identity politics that is holding back our country.'
Venezuela Fury and Noah Price subsidising their life by livestreaming
Venezuela Fury and her husband Noah Price look to be making their own way in the world by raking it in from their lucrative social media accounts.
The influencer daughter of Tyson and Paris Fury, 16, has become an internet sensation after tying the knot with her husband Noah, 19, earlier this year.
Since getting married and moving in together the couple have been earning thousands of pounds a month, livestreaming their life as newlyweds in their static caravan in the East Riding of Yorkshire.
And fans can't get enough of their regular life updates on TikTok and Kick, which have proved to be very profitable for the pair.
They look to be supporting themselves after Noah denied that he was given £5million by Venezuela's family as a wedding gift.
Despite his wife's huge family wealth, an estimated combined £160 million, Noah recently told his Kick followers that he 'pays for everything' for the couple.
Making light of the claims about Venezuela's millionaire financial status, Noah said: 'I actually pay for everything unfortunately. You'd expect the millionaire to pay for it wouldn't you.'

Venezuela then asked their fans: 'Do you think I am a millionaire?'
Noah joked: 'She isn't a secret millionaire guys', before she broke into song and sang: 'But I live like a millionaire!'
But it seems according to estimated calculations from their social media work, Noah and Venezuela can more than afford to support themselves.
Noah has been livestreaming on platforms such as Kick and TikTok, where viewers can send paid gifts or donations.
He was previously encouraging viewers to send gifts on his honeymoon during livestreams, suggesting this is one revenue stream.
Both Noah and Venezuela have built substantial followings on Instagram and TikTok. They can potentially earn money through sponsored posts, brand collaborations, affiliate links and creator payouts.
Kick allows its creators to take home 95 per cent of the £4.99 subscription cost that fans pay.
Streamers keep 100 per cent of direct tips and donations, minus minor standard payment processing fees.
It is unclear how many subscribers Noah currently has because this information is hidden, but he does have 7,200 followers which is publicly viewable.
An industry insider has suggested Noah is making around £400 per video on TikTok, while Venezuela is likely to make £2,000 due to her following count of 1.3 million.

In one video on their honeymoon, Noah asked his followers if they'd give them some more gifts now that they were married.
In a TikTok live viewed by 20,000 he said: 'Keep liking our videos people, keep sending gifts.'
After saying thank you to several of his followers he joked they should stick around on the livestream and 'watch Venezuela punch me in the mouth'.
The other half of the honeymooning couple said: 'I am, honestly!'
Noah previously confirmed that the pair don't share their finances after they were asked whether they have a shared bank account.
'She earns her money, I earn mine,' said Noah, as Venezuela joked: 'Yeah, what you gonna do about it.'
Noah went on to debunk the rumour that Tyson gave him £5million when he tied the knot with his daughter as he insisted: 'No Tyson did not give me £5million'.
Meanwhile Venezuela is being eyed up by executives for a fly on the wall TV series.

Boasting 1.3 million TikTok followers, Venezuela is already entertaining fans with her honest musings and candid moments, from cooking to kitting out her and Noah's static caravan home.
And following the success of the Netflix series At Home With The Furys, it is no wonder bosses are wanting to draw on the Fury popularity.
A TV insider said: 'The couple are not A-list celebrities but everyone has become obsessed with their love story.
'People are genuinely intrigued by them. Whether it’s the fact they have married so young, Venezuela’s famous family or their gypsy lifestyle, they have the ‘X factor'.
'Several TV executives think a proper fly-on-the-wall series following their lives as newlyweds in the gypsy community would be fascinating,' they told The Sun.
It is thought Netflix would be likely to produce the series due to their already established relationship with the Furys.
Venezuela's representatives told The Daily Mail: 'We have many offers on the table regarding Venezuela which we are discussing.'
