Abdul Razak Alhassan has had a mixed record in the UFC. Since his debut in Dana White‘s promotion in 2016, he’s racked up six wins and six losses so far. He has lost fights through knockouts and decisions. But Alhassan has never been submitted by any of his former opponents. However, things changed this time around.

Moreover, he proved his mettle and the hype surrounding him as he took on Abdul Razak Alhassan. ‘Bodybagz’ became the first fighter to submit the 38-year-old middleweight veteran to secure his 4th win in a row. And, as Pyfer got out of the cage, he was stopped by NFL legend Tom Brady and both athletes shared a moment.
