The 27-year-old maintained his 100% finish rate under the world's largest martial arts organization with an atomic left hook that caught Amir off guard, and he followed it up with another punch on the ground to officially seal the victory.
This one-shot power has proved that Abdullaev is a knockout machine who can send any fighter unconscious once he lands a clean shot against them.
Before this win over Amir, Abdullaev also victimized Oh Ho Taek in March 2023 at ONE Fight Night 8 with a first-round TKO and Aaron Canarte in July 2023 at ONE Fight Night 12 with another first-round TKO finish.
These triumphs have helped him earn the number five spot in the featherweight MMA division.
