2020 saw a number of fighters have impressive coming out parties on the UFC’s so-called Fight Island. Though he had just one appearance in the desert-side Octagon, Mounir Lazzez certainly made a statement.
In July the Tunisian welterweight, who got booked after a friend pushed a highlight reel under UFC President Dana White’s nose, put on an entertaining display of striking on route to besting former top prospect Abdul Razak Alhassan.
That moved ‘Sniper’’s overall record to 10-1. Most of his fights have come in the Brave CF and UAE Warriors promotions. His sole loss was a BCF title fight opposite Eldar Eldarov.
