Undefeated 31-year-old Turkish MMA star Alibeg Rasulov is one of the fastest-rising MMA stars from the Middle East today.
The Hyperion Fighters representative made his ONE Championship debut in July of 2024, taking his unblemished professional record to the world's largest martial arts organization against a former divisional king in South Korea's Ok Rae Yoon.
While many predicted Ok to put up a valiant effort against Rasulov, the Turkish star instead turned in a dominant performance, defeating the South Korean veteran via five-round unanimous decision.
