Fiziev to fight at UFC Baku on June 27, opponent likely Torres

Rafael Fiziev revealed in an interview with Janer Akbaba that his next bout will take place at UFC Baku on June 27. Turkish journalist Akbaba indicated he knows the opponent but cannot reveal the name yet, though he narrowed it down to three possibilities: Dan Hooker, Manuel Torres, or Brian Ortega. Recent reports suggest Manuel Torres has signed a contract for a fight, strongly indicating that Fiziev versus Torres will headline or co-headline the Baku event. The exact placement on the card remains to be determined.
