‘Lazy King’ returns! Abdouraguimov vs. Umalatov, Ayoub vs. Zaynukov join PFL Dubai lineup on Feb. 7

Published:

Professional Fighters League (PFL) recently announced its upcoming PFL Dubai mixed martial arts (MMA) event, headlined by the Usman Nurmagomedov vs. Alfie Davis lightweight title fight, for Sat., Feb. 7, 2026 at Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE).

And fight fans can expect a familiar (and “Lazy”) face in the PFL Dubai lineup.

Once-beaten French phenom Abdoul “Lazy King” Abdouraguimov (19-1) returns to action opposite welterweight phenom Magomed “Prince” Umalatov (18-1). The 30 year-old Abdouraguimov signed with PFL back in late 2023 and has already racked up three consecutive wins, while Umalatov, 33, is looking to capture his second straight after stopping Anthony Ivy last June in Nashville.

That’s not all.

Amin “Fierceness” Ayoub (24-6-1) will return to the PFL “SmartCage” after his debut win (and third-round stoppage) over Keweny Lopes at PFL Nantes just a few weeks back. He’ll be paired off against Team Khabib lightweight rising star Makkasharip “Artur” Zaynukov (18-4), who is already 3-0 under the PFL banner and coming off a commanding performance against John Mitchell in October. Both contests are expected to air on the PFL Dubai main card.

PFL Dubai also features the welterweight title fight pitting Ramazan Kuramagomedov (13-0) against Shamil “Silent Assassin” Musaev (18-0-1). In addition, undefeated flyweight superstar Dakota Ditcheva (15-0) looks to continue her winning ways against former Bellator bruiser Denise “Miss Dynamite” Kielholtz (8-5).
