Urijah Faber’s A1 Combat has struck gold once again in Mirali Huseynov. Huseynov, representing Azerbaijan, boasts a 9-3 record that includes eight finishes.
“Some sportsmen, they talk to [build] hype,” Huseynov explains. “My fights make hype for me. I don't care who's in front of me. When I go inside the cage, my personality is completely different. I want to kill my opponent, no mercy until I see him get on his knee or when he goesto sleep.”
In two appearances, Huseynov has found a home in Faber’s California-based organization. Far from home, supporters go all-out in their support for the latest MMA star to come from their home country.
