Amir Albazi’s record, in numbers

Amir Albazi’s official record is 17-3. Every figure on this page is counted instead from the 15 bouts MMA Hub holds a result for — 12 wins, 3 losses — because 5 bouts from the official record are not in the history we hold.

The 12 wins break down as 3 by knockout, 6 by submission and 3 by decision — 9 of 12 inside the distance, a finish rate of 75%. Across the 14 of 15 bouts with a recorded finishing round, the average bout lasted 10 minutes 39 seconds.

Amir Albazi has never been stopped in the 15 bouts on file; all 3 losses went to a decision. The last 2 bouts on file are both losses.

Of the 15 bouts MMA Hub holds a result for, 2 were for a title and 2 were the main event of the card. Two of them have come since July 2024.

Set against the 248 Flyweight fighters MMA Hub holds eight or more bouts for, Amir Albazi has a finish rate above 71% of them, a record of avoiding stoppage above 83% of them and a two-year bout count above 69% of them. The comparison is made inside the division rather than across the whole roster, because how often a division finishes depends heavily on what it weighs.

Amir Albazi is listed at 5ft 5in with a reach of 68in, fights orthodox and is 32, born 26 October 1993.

These figures are recomputed from Amir Albazi’s bout history each time results are synced, so they follow the record rather than a fixed snapshot.
