Azamat 'Iron' Bekoev is a 30-year-old Russian middleweight training with American Top Team, whose 20-5 record is split almost evenly between knockouts, submissions and decisions. He opened his UFC run with back-to-back finishes but has since dropped two straight, stopped by Yousri Belgaroui and submitted by Tresean Gore in April 2026, and now looks to reset against a fellow struggling veteran in Andre Petroski.
