AMIR ALBAZI

Representing Iraq, Amir Albazi competes in the flyweight category out of Great Britain Top Team. He initiated his professional journey in 2009, honing his skills through stints in Bellator and UCMMA prior to signing with the UFC in 2020. His tactical foundation relies heavily on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a discipline that has yielded many of his career finishes. Throughout his tenure in the sport, he has overcome significant medical hurdles, including procedures on his spine and heart. His resume features high-profile victories against Zhalgas Zhumagulov and Kai Kara-France.

Holding a professional record of 17-3-0, Albazi enters this contest looking to recover from consecutive defeats. His most recent appearance resulted in a unanimous decision loss to Kyoji Horiguchi in February 2026, following a decision setback against Brandon Moreno late in 2024. Prior to those two results, he had secured three straight victories: a split decision win over Kai Kara-France, a knockout of Alessandro Costa, and a rear-naked choke submission of Francisco Figueiredo.
