It’s hard to make it to the UFC. Thousands of professional fighters try every year – and most fail. For a small percentage, however, they sign their names on the dotted line to fight for the biggest MMA promotion in the world. Sometimes the opportunity comes a bit too soon. Other times, they’re faced with difficult matchups that time proves were bigger challenges than originally anticipated

Video: Albert Tumenov stays unbeaten in post-UFC run, folds opponent to reclaim ACA title

Albert Tumenov still carries tremendous power in his hands, even late in fights, and showed it again at ACA 168. Tumenov (24-4) vacated the ACA welterweight title in December 2019 to explore other opportunities in the combat sports space. He’s fought a few times for the promotion in recent years, but this past weekend came back to reclaim the belt that was once his. “Einstein” delivered an electric knockout of Ustarmagomed Gadzhidaudov (17-6) in the fifth round of their headlining bout at CSKA Arena in Moscow, to begin his second reign as 170-pound champion. Both men had some moments throughout the contest, but Tumenov had the better conditioning late. That allowed him to stun Gadzhidaudov with a hard punch that put him to a knee, before unloading with one more gigantic shot that folded his foe backward and slumped him into the canvas at the 4:53 mark of Round 5

BAD MMA News — Fri, 03 Dec 2021 23:10:06 +0000

Triller debuted Triad Combat this past Saturday, and a handful of notable boxing and MMA fighters squared off under a hybrid ruleset. Among those who competed were former boxing champion Kubrat Pulev , former UFC champion Frank Mir , former UFC welterweight Mike Perry , former UFC welterweight Albert Tumenov , former Bellator featherweight Derek Campos , and former Bellator and UFC heavyweight contender Matt Mitrione , among others. Following the completion of their respective bouts, the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR), which regulated the event at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, handed out medical suspensions to all 14 competitors. Unlike some other commissioning bodies, the TDLR does not reveal the specific injuries or reasons the fighters have been suspended. While the majority of the card were given suspensions under one month, undercard fighter Angelina Hoffschneider is facing an indefinite layoff after a first-round knockout loss to Alexa Culp. Outside of the indefinite suspension, Mir, who lost via standing TKO to Pulev at 1:59 into Round 1, was handed a 30-day sanction

ARLINGTON, Texas – Following a sensational victory at Saturday’s Triller Triad Combat , eight-time UFC veteran Albert Tumenov fancies a return to the world’s biggest MMA promotion. Tumenov’s striking skills were on display in the mixed-rules event at Globe Life Field, in which he won all seven rounds against veteran boxer Scott Sigmon. Afterward, the 29-year-old Russian lobbied UFC execs for another shot at competing in the organization’s famed octagon. “I want to say, Dana White, Sean Shelby, I always put on a fire show,” Tumenov told MMA Junkie. “I am the best boxer in MMA. Give me a f*cking contract, and I promise, Dana, you will not regret it.” It certainly didn’t seem to be an empty promise
