Welcome to the UFC: Azamat Bekoev
Briefly

Azamat Bekoev's path to the UFC seemed inevitable after his success in LFA; defenders of the title rarely get the chance to stay long in LFA before moving up.
Bekoev's fighting style often leads to decisions rather than finishes, but a recent knockout victory likely boosted him to the top of the UFC's short-notice replacement list.
Bekoev's record, while impressive in numbers with 8 submission wins, may be misleading as he struggles to secure finishes against high-level opponents.
Although Bekoev has secured multiple first-round finishes, many were against lower-tier opponents, showcasing a style more focused on a slow, grinding tactic.
