Undefeated MMA prospect sends bold message to UFC CEO Dana White after dominant win

Abdulaziz Datsilaev Promises To Become UFC Champion

Fury FC 104 went down at Imagen Venues in Houston, TX and was headlined by a bantamweight title fight between Nick Aguirre and John Yannis, and in the night’s co-main event Abdulaziz Datsilaev put his undefeated record on the line against Dumar Roa.

Boasting extensive amateur experience and a 4-0 professional record, Datsilaev showed off his wrestling early in the lightweight bout when he picked Roa up and slammed the Colombian to the mat.

“El Legendario Samurai” nearly made it out of the opening round, but with under 30 seconds left Datsilaev began raining down elbows and punches until the referee was forced to step in and save Roa from further punishment.

The 25-year-old donned a shirt with a message for UFC CEO Dana White and matchmaker Sean Shelby following the win, and in his post-fight interview Datsilaev declared that he would be the UFC’s next Dagestani lightweight champion and also become the promotion’s top pound-for-pound fighter.

The UFC’s lightweight division famously has a strong history of Dagestani champions thanks to dominant title reigns from Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev, and after just five pro fights Datsilaev is certainly setting an incredibly high bar for the rest of his MMA career.
