Shahbazyan entered the octagon with a mixed record—showing flashes of brilliance in stoppage wins over Dalcha Lungiambula and A.J. Dobson but struggling in recent bouts against tougher competition.

Despite alternating wins and losses in his previous fights, his explosive potential was on full display early in the match. With precise timing, Shahbazyan countered Budka’s aggressive approach, unleashing a nuclear pullback right hand that sent his opponent crashing to the canvas just 1:35 into Round 1. He then capitalized with relentless ground and pound, effectively ending the contest.

Budka had hoped to reverse his fortunes after a challenging UFC debut marked by back-to-back losses and a missed weight incident. His earlier regional success against fellow Contender Series alum Wes Schultz and a split decision win over Azamat Bekoev had sparked optimism.
