Nassourdine Imavov achieved a significant milestone by knocking out former UFC champion Israel Adesanya in just the second round during a match in Saudi Arabia. This victory not only showcased Imavov's striking abilities but also places him in contention for the title amid the upcoming championship fight between Dricus Du Plessis and Sean Strickland.

Imavov expressed confidence in his preparation and skills post-fight.
It felt incredible, especially against a champion like Adesanya. I expected this challenge and I delivered, showcasing my skills at the highest level.
Nassourdine Imavov's victory places him squarely in title contention, especially with the upcoming championship fight, demonstrating his striking prowess and readiness.
