The complete UFC Baku fight card for Fiziev vs Torres on June 27, 2026: seven main-card bouts, five prelims, weight classes, start times, and a 100-word read on every fight. Prelims open at 12:00 PM ET and the main card walks at 3:00 PM ET.
Five rounds, two of the most stylish strikers at 155 pounds, and a Baku crowd that has been waiting years to roar for Rafael Fiziev in person. Manuel Torres comes in 17-3 with the kind of one-shot left hand that flips main events in the first 90 seconds. Fiziev's calf-kick math and championship-round conditioning are the counter. Expect a tactical kickboxing chess match that quietly escalates — and a back-half that decides everything on the scorecards.
Michel Pereira Lima vs Sharaputdin Magomedov · Middleweight
Co-main chaos. Michel Pereira's parkour-style entries against Sharaputdin Magomedov's surgical counter game is the highest-variance fight on the card. Pereira can hand any 185-pounder a highlight reel — or eat a clean check hook trying. Magomedov is unbeaten in the UFC for a reason: he sees the lane before it opens.
Bad-intentions middleweight. Brunno Ferreira swings with both hands from the opening bell; Ikram Aliskerov answers with elite wrestling and ground-and-pound that has already produced highlight finishes at 185. If this stays standing, it ends fast. If it hits the mat, it ends faster.
Asu Almabaev is one of the heaviest grapplers at flyweight and a problem the moment he closes distance. Charles Johnson brings reach, southpaw/orthodox switches, and 90-strike-per-round volume. A round of striking, two rounds of mat work, and a tidy decision — that's the read.
Abdulrakhman Yakhyaev vs Julius Walker · Light Heavyweight
205 unbeaten energy. Abdulrakhman Yakhyaev is 9-0 with the kind of pressure-grappling that turns light heavyweights into anchors. Julius Walker is the bigger man with a real southpaw left hand. The opening exchanges tell the story.
Marvin Vettori back at 185 against a wiry Moroccan kickboxer who only needs one clean counter to land. Vettori's volume and southpaw pressure should bank rounds — but Naurdiev's right hand is real.
Abus Magomedov vs Michal Oleksiejczuk · Middleweight
First fight of the main card, last fight either guy wants to be in if it goes long. Abus Magomedov and Michal Oleksiejczuk are 9-1 combined when the fight ends inside two rounds. Don't blink.
Nursulton Ruziboev vs Andrey Pulyaev · Middleweight
Nursulton Ruziboev is 36-9 with submission depth most middleweights can't survive on the back. Andrey Pulyaev gets a tough debut on short notice and a length disadvantage in every exchange.
Quiet sleeper of the night. Bekzat Almakhan punches above his profile; Jean Matsumoto wrestles above his record. A 15-minute fight you'll talk about Sunday morning.
Daniel Donchenko vs Andreas Gustafsson · Welterweight
Welterweight pressure-fest. Daniel Donchenko forward, hands heavy, body work all night. Andreas Gustafsson is a counter-puncher who needs the cage center to breathe.
UFC debut on home soil for Farman Hasanov, undefeated at 4-0, against a tough American journeyman. Hometown debutants don't usually get a friendlier matchup or a louder backdrop.
The originally booked heavyweight bout between Rizvan Kuniev and Tyrell Fortune has been cancelled and removed from the card. No replacement bout was added.
