Levan Chokheli is reportedly set to face Islam Dulatov in UFC Saudi Arabia after his 23-second debut victory
Dulatov (12-1) earned his UFC contract
Dana White Candidate Series in 2024. He dropped out Adam Fugitt
in his promotional debut in July 2025, dropping the American with a left hook before ending the first round with follow-up punches at 4:06.
Chokheli (15-3, 1 NC) also enters action after a first-round stoppage in his UFC debut. The Georgian welterweight needed just 23 seconds to stop Leon Shahbazyan in June.
However, the promotion for UFC Saudi Arabia has not announced Israel Adesanya vs. Sharabutdin Magomedov is reported as the targeted main event.
