The transition to a new gym often becomes the spark that leads to an entirely new fighter who manages to make the most out of the opportunity when it gets presented to them. In today’s episode of Across The Pond, you will meet a falcon of regal authority ready to permanently ground his opponents and create a no-fly zone by royal decree in Cage Warriors. A professional mixed martial artist since November 2021 and representing Next Generation Liverpool under head coach Paul Rimmer, Yusuf Nazokatov owns a 2-1 record in three outings consisting of one submission and one decision. He has fought for Bellator MMA, Full Contact Contender and Cage Warriors. Nazokatov has spent his whole career as a professional MMA fighter in the United Kingdom and is 1-0 under the Cage Warriors banner. He has a single second-round finish under his belt in three appearances as a professional mixed martial artist. His only decision win has resulted in a unanimous verdict.

In his professional MMA debut and lone outing under the Bellator MMA banner at Bellator 270, he faced Stephen Costello and submitted him via heel hook in the second round to notch his first submission win as a professional. Then in his promotional debut under the Cage Warriors banner on the main card of Cage Warriors 180 Nazokatov defeated Cameron Stewart via unanimous decision. The victory earned Nazokatov the first decision win of his professional career in addition to his first victory under the Cage Warriors banner. He also secured his second overall win inside the professional ranks in the process. Nazokatov is a prospect who is showing prospective subjects who dare to enter his dominions by means of invasive measures that you can be a wise and fair ruler while maintaining kingly ambitions even if it means helping others go after a different ambition in the place of his ulterior goals as he begins his yellow glove pilgrimage towards the historic throne at Lightweight!
