Ikram Aliskerov

29 | 6’0″ | Makhachkala, Russia | 11-1 | 8 Finishes | 4 KO/TKOs, 4 Submission’s (2 Kimura’s, Guillotine, Armbar) | Combined Opponents’ Record: 76-37 | Best Win – Diego Gonzalez (20-13)

Along with other accomplishments, Aliskerov is a two-time world combat sambo champion out of Makhachkala, Russia. His only career loss is to the red hot UFC fighter Khamzat Chimaev. Since that loss, Aliskerov has won his next three fights. Since 2017 he’s been fighting for Brave CF and is a fight or two away from fighting for their title.

While he has a wrestling background, Aliskerov likes to stand and trade with his opponents. He has a good jab along with some impressive accuracy and timing on both his strikes and level changes. A lot is still unknown about him, but with the power, speed, and accuracy he shows on the feet while being an accomplished wrestler, I like his future prospects.
