Khadis Ibragimov, who left UFC in 2020 with an 0-4 record over 13 months, has since competed in 19 fights across various promotions, compiling an estimated 13-3-3 record. According to Ibragimov, his fight purses have increased 4-5 times compared to his UFC earnings, now reportedly earning 5-6 million rubles per fight. On April 12, he makes his ACA debut against undefeated heavyweight Daniil Matsola (7-0), who is 12 kg lighter. The same card features Tony Johnson, who previously defeated Derrick Lewis, Tim Sylvia, and Alexander Volkov, facing Kirill Kornilov. Despite his post-UFC success, analysts note Ibragimov has shown inconsistency against high-level opposition throughout his career.
