Sharabutdin
Magomedov, more commonly known as “Shara Bullet,” will square
off against Armen
Petrosyan in a middleweight bout at UFC
308.
The Las Vegas-based promotion announced the booking on Monday. UFC
308 takes place on Oct. 26 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi and is
headlined by a featherweight championship clash pitting Ilia
Topuria against Max
Holloway. A light heavyweight clash between Ibo Aslan and
Raffael
Cerqueira was also confirmed for the event.
Magomedov has won three straight contests to begin his Octagon
tenure. Most recently, the 30-year-old Dagestani outpointed
Michal Oleksiejczuk at
UFC on ABC 7 to improve his overall professional mark to
14-0.
After earning a
UFC contract on
Dana White’s Contender Series in 2021, Petrosyan has gone 3-2
thus far during his promotional tenure. In his last outing, the
33-year-old Armenian had a two-bout winning streak snapped when he
suffered a first-round submission defeat against Rodolfo
Vieira at UFC Fight Night 236.
