Ullubiy Amirzanov, a 23-year-old bantamweight from Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov's school, secured his seventh consecutive victory at UAE Warriors, finishing Bruno Rocha (6-1) with a reverse arm triangle choke. The Dagestani fighter took Rocha down from a standing grip and secured the submission. Amirzanov is now 7-0 as a professional with all seven wins coming by finish, six of them by submission including guillotines, arm-in guillotine, ninja choke, and rear-naked choke. He is the son of Thai boxing and kickboxing coach Anvarbek Amirzanov and has a background in Muay Thai.
Ullubiy Amirzanov stretched his unbeaten professional record to seven fights with a submission finish over Bruno Rocha at UAE Warriors on May 10, 2026, capping an impressive run that has seen him stop every single opponent he has faced.
The 23-year-old Dagestani bantamweight, who trains out of the school founded by the late Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, took Rocha down from a standing grip before locking in a reverse arm triangle choke to seal the victory. Rocha entered the contest with a 6-1 record, making the finish all the more noteworthy for a fighter still building his professional resume.
Amirzanov is now a perfect 7-0, with all seven wins coming by finish. Six of those have been submissions, a collection that includes guillotines, an arm-in guillotine, a ninja choke, and a rear-naked choke, demonstrating a varied and well-developed ground game for someone just 23 years old. The seventh finish rounds out a record that shows no fight has gone the distance against him.
His grappling-heavy approach sits alongside a striking foundation built from years of Muay Thai, a discipline influenced by his father, Anvarbek Amirzanov, a Thai boxing and kickboxing coach. That combination of stand-up credentials and submission finishing ability makes him a multi-dimensional prospect at 135 pounds.
Why it matters
- Seven finishes from seven fights signals elite finishing instinct at the regional level
- A Muay Thai base paired with Dagestani grappling is a difficult combination for opponents to prepare against
- Continued success at UAE Warriors typically places fighters on the radar of larger promotions seeking proven finishers in the bantamweight division
