Things looked grim for “The Lazy King” Abdoul Abdouraguimov as the clock ticked down to less than one minute remaining in his ARES 11 main event title challenge at middleweight. For the majority of five rounds, Abdouraguimov (16-1), typically a welterweight, struggled with the strength of the much larger Rafal Haratyk (16-5-1) – until an absolute kneebar attempt from the bottom ended the bout at 4:35 of Round 5. The finish sent the Dome de Paris into a frenzy, as spectators tried to wrap their heads around what had just occurred. Abdouraguimov is now a double champion for the leading French mixed martial arts promotion. Already the ARES welterweight champion, Abdouraguimov was deemed by many as UFC-ready after a successful June title defense. But when the UFC call still didn’t come, Abdouraguimov decided to elevate to middleweight.
