Umar Nurmagomedov vs Mario Bautista FULL FIGHT HIGHLIGHTS RECAP | UFC 321 (Abu Dhabi)
October 25, 2025 — Umar Nurmagomedov bounced back in dominant fashion at UFC 321, defeating Mario Bautista by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) in Abu Dhabi. The Dagestani contender survived an early knockdown, overcame adversity, and reminded the bantamweight division why his last name still carries championship weight.
Fighting for the first time since his title loss to Merab Dvalishvili at UFC 311, Umar showed no hesitation returning to his wrestling-heavy roots. He immediately took Bautista down and controlled large stretches of the opening round — though Bautista nearly stunned the crowd by locking in a dangerous toe hold submission attempt that Nurmagomedov narrowly escaped.
The second round brought even more chaos. Bautista landed a clean flying knee that dropped Nurmagomedov hard, forcing him to shoot for a desperate takedown. But true to the Dagestani style, Umar recovered, reestablished control, and spent the remainder of the fight imposing relentless pressure from top position. By Round 3, Nurmagomedov was fully in command, chaining together takedowns, ground control, and heavy strikes to seal a unanimous decision victory.
With the win, Umar improves to 19-1, ending Mario Bautista’s eight-fight win streak and putting himself back in the title conversation. After the fight, Nurmagomedov called out the winner of Merab Dvalishvili vs Petr Yan 2, set for UFC 323 in December, promising to return “100 times better” and reclaim the bantamweight title.
