Quick read
Abdul-Rahim Yakhyaev has demonstrated resilience and technical depth in his two most competitive fights, defeating Najmudin Yusupov via triangle choke in round two at ACA Young Eagles in June 2022 and outpointing Nikolai Kovalenko — a master of sport in judo — by unanimous decision over five rounds in January 2023. Against Kovalenko, Yakhyaev recovered from a knockdown in the second round by clinching a takedown and controlling the remainder of the fight on the ground. The performances highlight his well-rounded arsenal of takedowns, ground control, and submission offense.
