Fiziev is a flashy Azerbaijani kickboxer out of Tiger Muay Thai, known for elite head movement, fast counters, and highlight-reel kicks. He was stopped by Mauricio Ruffy in February 2026 but bounced back with a spinning wheel kick knockout of Manuel Torres in June. He hovers just outside the top ten, dangerous against anyone who stands with him but vulnerable in high-stakes decisions.
