Muslim Salikhov’s most recent UFC win was an impressive one.
The Russian fighter picked up a TKO win over Andre Fialho, overwhelming him in the striking department late in their contest in November 2022. A spinning wheel kick to the head sparked the finishing sequence for Salikhov, which earned him a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus.

Salikhov (19-5 MMA, 6-4 UFC) returns to the cage Saturday in the UFC on ESPN 59 co-main event at Ball Arena in Denver. He fights fellow veteran Santiago Ponzinibbio (29-7 MMA, 11-6 UFC) in a welterweight matchup.
