Edil Yessengulov secured his 27th career victory with a dominant performance over top contender Ibrahim Magomedov in the middleweight division (84 kg). Notably, Yessengulov fought his first professional bout in bantamweight (61 kg) just eight years ago, demonstrating significant physical development across his career. The victory came in impressive fashion against a highly-ranked opponent. There is interest in seeing Yessengulov compete against someone from the top five of the division next.
