The UFC 268 event is all set to be one of the most anticipated MMA events of the year. The much-awaited rematch between Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington will headline this event. Apart from this fight, there are various other fights set to happen at the event. Now, according to recent news, the UFC has also added a middleweight bout between Edmen Shahbazyan and Nassourdine Imavov to the lineup.

Shahbazyan is currently No. 11 in the UFC middleweight rankings and is touted amongst the brightest prospects in the UFC. ‘The Golden Boy’ had an incredible start to his MMA career, winning his first 11 professional fights. However, the fighter then suffered 2 consecutive losses to take his professional MMA record to 11-2.

Nassourdine Imavov will come into the fight on the back of an impressive victory. In his last fight at UFC Vegas 32, ‘Russian Sniper’ defeated Ian Heinisch via a 2nd round TKO. Imavov is also a young fighter and many think he has the potential to become the next superstar of the UFC. ‘Russian Sniper’ currently has an MMA record of 10-3 and has won 2 out of his 3 UFC fights.
