Before signing with the UFC in 2020, Rakhmonov already racked up 12 wins from different MMA organizations, including title wins in KZMMAF and M-1 Challenge.
Khamzat Chimaev: Khamzat Chimaev is arguably the hottest prospect today in the UFC. With 14 wins (nine in the UFC), Chimaev has indeed burst into stardom. He’s coming off his championship triumph against Dricus Du Plessis in the main event of UFC 318 last Aug.
Movsar Evloev: Another Russian currently undefeated in the UFC is Movsar Evloev, with 16 wins. Evloev is riding a six-fight winning streak in the Las Vegas-based promotion. Before joining the leading MMA promotion in the world, Evloev dominated the M1 Global, where he collected ten victories en route to becoming the featherweight champion. This win earned him the fifth spot in the featherweight division rankings. The now-American Top Team representative followed up this win with four more decision victories over Enrique Barzola (in October 2019), Mike Grundy (in June 2020), Nik Lentz (in Hakeem Dawodu (in June 2021), Dan Ige (in June 2022), Diego Lopes (in May 2023).
Michael Morales: Michael Morales is an MMA fighter from Ecuador who has carved out a name for himself in the UFC with his incredible one-punch knockout power. Before coming into the UFC, “El Matador” already had eight wins, all from stoppages (seven submissions and one knockout) from the MMA organizations he competed in, like the Cage Warriors and BRAVE Combat Federation. Since then, he maintained his perfect professional MMA record of 18-0, coming off a win against former UFC welterweight title challenger Gilbert Burns.
