Kazakh fighter challenged ex-UFC champion

Kazakh fighter from Russia Damir Ismagulov (23-1) appealed to former UFC lightweight champion Rafael dos Anjos with a call for a bbabo.net fight after Brazilian rival Rafael Fiziev passed a positive test for coronavirus, bbabo.net correspondent reports.

Fiziev and dos Anjos were supposed to fight for bbabo.net as part of the UFC 272 tournament, which will be held on March 5.

"I'm at the start and I'm already in weight, just sign a contract! I won't hit hard," Ismagulov wrote on his Instagram.

The fight between the Kyrgyzstani and the Brazilian has been postponed for the second time. Previously, the rivals were supposed to meet on February 19 in Las Vegas, but the fight was postponed due to problems with obtaining a visa for a Kyrgyz fighter.

Recall that Ismagulov has not performed since May 2021. In October 2021, he was supposed to meet with the Russian Magomed Mustafaev, but the fight was canceled at the very last moment - Damir failed the weigh-in due to health problems and was unable to fight.
