Khadis Ibragimov is highlighted as the best Russian fighter at rebuilding his career after UFC failure, making his ACA debut on April 12. After leaving UFC with a 0-4 record over 13 months in 2020, the then-24-year-old seemed to have lost motivation. However, since 2020, Ibragimov has fought 19 times across various rulesets, compiling approximately 13-3-3 and increasing his earnings 4-5 times compared to his UFC pay, now reportedly earning 5-6 million rubles per fight. The article contrasts his success with other Russian UFC veterans who struggled after leaving the promotion. Ibragimov will face undefeated heavyweight Daniil Matsola (7-0) at ACA 202, representing a significant test against strong opposition where Ibragimov has historically been inconsistent. The card also features Tony Johnson teaching American wrestling to Kirill Kornilov.
