As an MMA fighter, having a heightened sense of awareness in all situations certainly can be the key that ultimately unlocks the door to future success on their chosen career path. In today’s episode of Across The Pond, you will be introduced to the latest cold carver ready to shift the snowpack and significantly stich up the divisional dividing line at Heavyweight for Unified MMA on September 26 at Unified MMA 63 from Rebel Entertainment Complex in Toronto. A professional mixed martial artist since May 2025 and representing Action And Reaction MMA, Fawaz Olayemi holds a 1-0 record with his only professional victory coming via TKO. Olayemi has spent his whole professional tenure with Unified MMA and is 1-0 under their banner. He has never gone to the scorecards over the course of his professional journey with a 100 percent finish rate to show for it. Olayemi has one first-round finish under his belt in his lone professional appearance. The lone finish during his professional journey thus far has come inside the opening round with a time of four minutes and 40 seconds. He has spent his entire career in his home nation of Canada.
In his professional MMA debut and promotional debut under the Unified MMA banner in the opening main card contest of Unified MMA 62, he faced Jonathan Lefebvre and went on to defeat him via technical knockout in round one. The win secured Olayemi the first knockout victory of his professional career alongside his first win and finish under the Unified MMA banner. Olayemi also earned his first overall victory as a professional mixed martial artist in the process. At Unified MMA 63 on September 26, he will clash with fellow undefeated fighter Mirza Hopovac at Heavyweight. Other fighters that are set to appear on this card include Simon Marcus, Bobby Poulter, and The Ultimate Fighter season 32 alumni Tom Theocharis. Good luck Fawaz!
