Hailing from Kazakhstan, Asu Almabayev represents the DAR Pro Team as a competitor in the flyweight division. His foundation in wrestling evolved into a comprehensive skill set incorporating boxing, karate, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Before joining the global stage, he captured an interim flyweight title in M-1 Global. Known for an approach that emphasizes grappling, the orthodox fighter has consistently showcased his capacity to finish opponents during his climb through regional circuits and into the UFC.
Almabayev enters this bout holding a professional mark of 24-3-0. His recent run includes consecutive victories, beginning with a unanimous decision against Matheus Nicolau. Following a stoppage loss to Manel Kape in early 2025, he rebounded by besting Jose Ochoa on the scorecards. He then secured back-to-back submission finishes, first tapping out Alex Perez and most recently defeating Charles Johnson.
