Nursultan Ruziboev returns to the octagon in Italy

The next fight of Nursultan Ruziboev (30-8-2), one of the most prominent fighters of the Uzbek MMA world, has been announced.

As you know, he signed a contract with the promotion of Bahrain "Breve CF" and began a successful career there. It all went down at the Brave CF 47: Asian Domination event on March 11 at the Arad Fort in Bahrain, with Ruziboev fighting Ibrahim Mane in a welterweight match — one of the final bouts on the 10-fight card.

Midway through the opening round, Mane had his back on the canvas and tried to lock in a triangle choke.

Unfazed, Ruziboev picked Mane off the floor and, with a forearm across his opponent's face to maximize impact, slammed Mane to the ground head-first.

Ruziboev will have his next fight against the opponent TBA on August 1 at the event of this promotion in Milan, Italy.
