The official roster of the world's most prestigious MMA organization, the UFC, has been updated.

Offsideplus.az reports that Azerbaijani fighter Farman Hasanov (5-0) has been officially added to the list. Our representative, who has won all five of his professional bouts, gained international attention particularly through his performances in the well-known US-based LFA (Legacy Fighting Alliance) promotion.

Hasanov, who has experience in both the lightweight and welterweight divisions, is expected to compete in the 70 kg (lightweight) category.

It should be noted that UFC Fight Night will take place in Baku on June 27. Farman Hasanov is expected to make his official UFC debut during this event.
