Khadis Ibragimov rebuilt career with 13-3-3 record after 0-4 UFC run

Khadis Ibragimov has demonstrated remarkable career recovery among Russian fighters who left the UFC, transforming from a devastating 0-4 record in 2020 to an impressive 13-3-3 across 19 fights since departing the promotion. Starting his UFC tenure at 8-0, the then-24-year-old crashed to 8-4 during the pandemic year and left the organization. Ibragimov claims his purses have increased four to five times compared to his UFC earnings, now reportedly earning 5-6 million rubles per fight. He makes his ACA debut on April 12 against undefeated heavyweight Daniil Matsola (7-0), who will have a 12kg weight advantage. Despite his strong post-UFC record across various rule sets, the analysis notes Ibragimov has shown inconsistency against elite-level opposition.
