Undefeated lightweight Nurullo Aliev has announced via social media that he has signed a contract for his next UFC fight. The 11-0 fighter, who has gone 3-0 inside the Octagon, shared the news with his followers but did not reveal his opponent. Aliev has been building momentum in the UFC lightweight division with three consecutive victories. His next opponent has not been officially announced. The timing and location of the bout remain undisclosed at this time.
Nurullo Aliev has announced on social media that he has signed a contract for his next UFC appearance, though the lightweight prospect stopped short of revealing who he will face or when the bout will take place.
The 25-year-old from Tajikistan, known as the Tajik Eagle, carries a perfect 11-0-0 professional record into his next assignment and has gone undefeated across all three of his Octagon appearances so far. Standing five-foot-ten with a 72-inch reach, Aliev fights out of an orthodox stance and has put together a well-rounded statistical profile during his UFC run, averaging 2.72 significant strikes landed per minute at 44 percent accuracy while also threatening consistently on the ground with 2.12 takedown attempts per 15 minutes.
His combination of striking output and wrestling activity has made him one of the more intriguing unbeaten names working his way through the lightweight division.
Why it matters
- A fourth UFC victory for the still-unbeaten Aliev would firmly establish him as a ranked lightweight contender to watch.
- At just 25, he has room to develop further and a long-term ceiling that makes opponent selection increasingly significant.
- His blend of takedown pressure and striking volume creates stylistic problems for a wide range of opponents at 155 pounds.
No opponent, venue, or event date has been confirmed at this stage, with Aliev's announcement leaving those details for a future official UFC release.
