Zubaira Tukhugov has signed with ACB JJ and is set to make his promotional debut on July 6, the organization confirmed.
Tukhugov, known by the nickname "Warrior," enters the new chapter of his career at 35 years old with a professional record of 20-6-1. The Russian featherweight trains out of Tiger Muay Thai and fights out of an orthodox stance, standing five-foot-eight with a 68-inch reach. Over the course of his career he has shown a well-rounded offensive game, averaging 3.17 significant strikes landed per minute along with 2.13 takedowns per 15 minutes, making him a credible threat both on the feet and on the mat.
Why it matters
- Tukhugov brings a seasoned 20-6-1 record to ACB JJ, giving the promotion an experienced name for its roster
- His blend of striking output and takedown activity should translate well to a submission-grappling adjacent promotional format
- No opponent has been announced for the July 6 debut, leaving the divisional stakes of the matchup unclear for now
