Abusupyan Magomedov and Michal Oleksiejczuk have been confirmed as the main event of UFC Baku, scheduled for June 27th, with the middleweight contest set to headline the promotion's first card in Azerbaijan's capital.
Michal Oleksiejczuk, nicknamed "Hussar," enters the bout carrying a professional record of 22-10-0 and a 10-7-1NC mark inside the UFC. The 31-year-old southpaw from Poland trains out of Akademia Sportow Walki Wilanow and has established himself as one of the more active strikers in the middleweight division. Standing six feet tall with a 74-inch reach, Oleksiejczuk lands an impressive 5.85 significant strikes per minute at a 53 percent accuracy rate, making him a consistent offensive threat on the feet. He also adds a modest takedown dimension, averaging 1.02 takedowns per 15 minutes.
Abusupyan Magomedov holds a 4-3 record through his UFC tenure, though verified career totals were not available at the time of this report.
Why it matters
- Both fighters are middleweight contenders looking to make a statement on a high-profile international card
- A main event win could push either man into the upper tier of the 185-pound divisional picture
- Oleksiejczuk's high-volume striking output sets up a compelling stylistic challenge for Magomedov, who will need to have answers for that offensive pace
