Reported prose from our newsroom. All-rounder
Tofiq Musayev is 1-1 in the UFC. He debuted on June 21, 2025, against Myktybek Orolbai in a catchweight bout and lost by submission in the first round.
More than nine months passed before his next fight. On March 28, 2026, Musayev met Ignacio Bahamondes at lightweight and won a unanimous decision over three rounds.
That is his only UFC win on record and his only UFC fight to reach the scorecards. His debut is the only time he has been finished in the promotion.
Belgrade is his third UFC appearance and his second at lightweight.
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.

Across our full back-tested history we called 1 of Tofiq Musayev’s fights, 1 correct. Back-tested, not part of the public timestamped record: these were computed after the fact, so they show the model working on old cards — they were never published ahead of those fights.
Where the strikes go — and where they land on him. Career UFC totals, straight off the tape.
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.
The level change — how often it lands, how often it is stopped. Career UFC rates, straight off the tape.
Rate bars run to the population’s 95th percentile (5.22 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.
Pro record: 24-6. In the UFC: 2-1. Tofiq Musayev’s last 3 UFC bouts, most recent first — the result in the cage, not our pick.
Straight off the official UFC fight record. Card names are left off on purpose: the only event labels in our data are derived, and we’d rather print nothing than print one that’s wrong.
| Date | Opponent | Method | Rd | Event | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-08-01 | W | Ludovit Klein | KO/TKO | R2 | UFC Fight Night: Medic vs. Rodriguez |
| 2026-03-28 | W | Ignacio Bahamondes | Decision (unanimous) | R3 | UFC Fight Night: Adesanya vs. Pyfer |
| 2025-06-21 | L | Myktybek Orolbai | Submission | R1 | UFC Fight Night: Hill vs. Rountree Jr. |
Every date links to that bout’s own page. Card names come from the official event record; where the UFC ran two cards on one date, or that record has no row for it, the Event column is left empty rather than filled with a guess.
