Nurullo Aliev improved his perfect record to 12-0 with a unanimous decision victory over Mike Davis at UFC Abu Dhabi. The win marks Aliev's fourth consecutive victory inside the UFC. Davis drops to 12-4, with two losses in his last three bouts.
Nurullo Aliev kept his professional record spotless on July 25, earning a unanimous decision over Mike Davis at UFC Abu Dhabi to push his unbeaten mark to 12-0.
The victory is a significant milestone for Aliev, who has now strung together four consecutive wins inside the UFC. That kind of sustained momentum inside the promotion is rare, and the performance adds another layer of credibility to what has been a quietly impressive run through the organization's roster.
Mike Davis, known as "Beast Boy," came in looking to halt that momentum but was unable to get the job done over the course of the fight. The 33-year-old orthodox fighter stands six feet tall with a 72-inch reach and has shown genuine weapons throughout his career, averaging 4.68 significant strikes landed per minute with a solid 52 percent striking accuracy. He also brings a meaningful wrestling dimension to his game, averaging 2.48 takedowns per fifteen minutes. Despite those tools, Davis was unable to find the answer for Aliev on the night, dropping to what the summary indicates is 12-4, with two losses now in his last three outings.
Why it matters
- Aliev's fourth straight UFC win at 12-0 puts him firmly on the radar of fighters ranked higher in his division
- Davis's recent inconsistency, losing twice in his last three, raises questions about where he fits among the contenders in the weight class
- The unbeaten narrative surrounding Aliev gives matchmakers a compelling marketing angle as they consider his next opponent
- A unanimous decision suggests Aliev controlled multiple rounds clearly, hinting at well-rounded skills rather than a single standout attribute
