Mansur Abdul-Malik has made five UFC appearances and carries a 3-1 record. The fifth fight sits outside the win-loss column: his June 14, 2025, meeting with Cody Brundage was overturned, so it counts as neither a win nor a loss.

He opened with two knockouts. Abdul-Malik stopped Dusko Todorovic in the first round of his debut on Nov. 9, 2024, then stopped Nick Klein in the second round on Feb. 22, 2025.

After the Brundage result, he submitted Antonio Trocoli in the first round on Dec. 6, 2025.

His first UFC loss came March 28, 2026, when Yousri Belgaroui stopped him by TKO in the third round.

All five of his UFC bouts have been at middleweight, and four of the five ended inside the distance.

Tale of the tape facts

The facts, plainly — vitals and record from public UFC statistics; nickname, nationality, hometown and camp from the public fighter register. A field we can't source stays “pending”; it never shows a fake value.

Significant strikes only, as recorded by UFCStats, across the fighter's whole UFC career. Shares are raw counts — nothing here is modelled or smoothed. Accuracy is landed ÷ attempted and comes from the per-round tape, which covers slightly fewer fights than the totals do. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.

Rate bars run to the population’s 95th percentile (6.86 takedowns / 15m); a fighter above it pins the bar. Percentages are drawn on their own axis.

Career UFC takedown rates exactly as UFCStats publishes them: takedowns landed per 15 minutes, completion rate, submission attempts per 15 minutes, and the share of takedowns tried on them that they stuffed. Attempts per 15 is the one derived figure — landed ÷ completion rate — and it is omitted wherever either input is missing. UFCStats writes 0% where no attempt was recorded at all, so a percentage of exactly zero reads “n/a” here rather than as a measured rate. “Field” is the average fighter in that weight class, or across every division where a class is too small to average.
