Get To Know Amir Albazi

Flyweight Contender On The Rise Amir Albazi Is Well-Positioned To Make His Presence Known In The Title Picture

Oct. 28, 2024

Since joining the roster in July 2020, Amir Albazi has long been touted as a flyweight contender to watch. His rise has been steady, accumulating five wins, including two finishes. In the wide-open division with Alexandre Pantoja on top, it feels like a shot at the 125-pound crown is up for grabs, and Albazi is very much in that mix.

Albazi got his breakout moment when he beat Kai Kara-France in his first UFC main event, and he is primed to make his bid for gold should he get a second main event win when he faces Brandon Moreno in Edmonton on November 2.
