Usman Nurmagomedov Set to Defend Undefeated Streak in Road to Dubai Champions Series
The anticipation for the highly anticipated "Road to Dubai Champions Series" is reaching new heights, with the Professional Fighters League (PFL) set to showcase an unforgettable night of mixed martial arts on January 25, 2025. Held at Dubai's iconic Coca-Cola Arena, this event is gearing up to deliver some of the most thrilling fights the region has ever seen. Among the headliners, one name stands out—Usman Nurmagomedov, the undefeated Bellator Lightweight World Champion, who is ready to defend his flawless 18-0 record.
Nurmagomedov, known as the "Pride of Dagestan," enters the octagon with an unshakable confidence and a legacy to protect. His last victory cemented his dominance in the lightweight division, and now, as he faces Ireland's Paul "Big News" Hughes (13-1), the stakes couldn't be higher. Hughes, who gained momentum after his impressive win over AJ McKee in the PFL, is determined to prove his worth and dethrone the undefeated champion. This showdown promises to be a battle for the ages, as two of the most skilled fighters in the world collide with everything on the line.
