Return to pro MMA

[edit]

The "Prince" finally returned to the octagon in mid-2018 where he would compete in eight pro MMA fight in his two years with various Russian promotions, winning each battle solely through his finishing skills.[22] The "Prince" wins in these matches included flying knees, brutal overhand strikes, and beating his opponent until the match was stopped by the cage referee.[13][22]

GFC & EFC Welterweight Champion

[edit]

After string of strong performances all coming with either first round or second round finishes, Umalatov along with experienced Brazilian fighter, Adriano "Lion Man" Balbi, were booked to fight for the Gorilla Fighting Championship's Welterweight strap, on GFC 16 event, at Astrakhan, Russia, in co-main fight.[37] However, Adriano Balbi withdrew from the bout and was promptly replaced by Umalatov's comrade Alexey "Malysh" Novikov of Russia.[38] That fight did not go the distance, as Umalatov TKO'd Novikov within round one of the fight.[39][40] This was Umalatov 8th pro victory, all coming via early finishes.[23]

Sometime after winning the GFC championship strap, Umalatov along with classical archer Alexander Gazitulin and Russian-Kazakh MMA fighter Serik Razgaliev were invited to as guest speakers to a forum in Astrakhan, where they got into great details about the struggles they faced as professional athletes.[41] During the forum meeting, competitions were also organized, as the participants were given prizes/gift from the hands of the three attending guests.[42]

After winning the GFC's World Welterweight Championship belt, Umalatov original plan was to defend his title on December 13 or 14 of the same year, however he was informed by Gorilla FC management that the entire Welterweight bout was scrapped from their December card. Than he planned to defend his belt on March of the year 2020 at GFC 25 card.[43] That plan was ultimately cancelled as well as Gorilla FC was in talks to be taken over by MMA superstar Khabib Nurmagomedov for one million dollars.[44][45]

In the final, Umalatov is scheduled to face Shamil Musaev on November 29, 2024, at PFL 10.[97]

Personal life

[edit]

Due to Umalatov tendency to KO/TKO most of his opponents, he was branded as Artur Beterbiev of MMA by Russian media.[98]

One of his elder sibling Gasan Umalatov, is currently serving as Vice-President of the Astrakhan MMA Federation.[99]

Umalatov has 100 fights as an amateur in various combat sports.[100] He has 50 fights in amateur MMA and nearly the same amount of battles in hand-to-hand combat tourneys.[100] He also competed in combat sambo tournament as well. He fought 4 different opponents in single day during his amateur fight career.[100]

On March 9, 2016, Umalatov managed to achieve the rare distinction of being conferred the title of Master of Sports both in Soyuz MMA and Hand-to-Hand Combat by Russian Sports Minister, Vitaly Mutko in the same awarding ceremony.[101] His Master of Sports in Soyuz MMA was later upgraded to International Master of Sports after becoming European Champion in Dresden, Germany.[36]

After winning regional combat sambo tourney, Umalatov was also given the title of Master of Sports in Combat Sambo.[102]

On December 27, 2017 Umalatov and his Eagles MMA gym mates like Raimond Magomedaliev (2-times Wushu Sanda World Champion and Combat Sambo World Champion), Akhmed "Butcher" Aliev, Abusupiyan Alikhanov, Gasan Umalatov (Umalatov's older brother), Ismail Aliev, Aigun Akhmedov, Basyr Abakarov & Magomed Abdurakhimov all partook in charity martial classes classes for the Muscovite children. These fighters also took part in relay races and other children's games with attending Muscovite kids.[103][104]

Rizvan Magomedov became Umalatov's manager sometime around in 2019.[12]

Just like Khamzat "Borz" Chimaev, Umalatov also lives and sleeps in upper floor of American Top Team gym at Coconut Creek, Florida.[105] Until April 13, 2024, he has been living in ATT for three years, where he is sharing accommodation with 6-10 fellow fighters.[15]

Umalatov doesn't take more than one-week break after his fights.[106] Even during Ramazan, he took two training sessions per day to prepare for Dilano "Postman" Taylor.[105]

During these rare breaks from combat training, Umalatov treat himself to simple pleasures in order to recover and refresh himself.[106] He is a fan of action movies and uses them as a form of entertainment and also as a means to improve his command over the English language.[106] Umalatov also visits Floridan cinemas.[105] During this free time, he allows himself some leeway when it comes to his diet, preferring hearty meat dishes and occasionally drinking Coca-Cola.[106] Sightseeing is also  part of his leisure program.[105]

Umalatov's PFL debut  can be described as a happy accident.[22] Initially, Umalatov flew to America to  serve as a sparring partner and cornerman for his teammate Akhmed "Butcher" Aliev, who was about to compete in the PFL's lightweight tournament.[22] During that time, Umalatov asked his manager Rizvan Magomedov, if there was any spot available for him to compete in the PFL bouts.[12] He was than informed by his manager, that there was virtually no chance at first, as the entire PFL Welterweight lineup was complete where they even had one reserve fighter booked in Welterweight their rooster.[12]

Therefore, Umalatov initially intended to corner his gym colleague Akhmed "Butcher" Aliev.[22] However, the situation quickly changed as both of his compatriot Magomed Magomedkerimov & Alexey "Wolverine" Kunchenko were denied visas.[12] Rizvan Magomedov, the manager of both fighters (Umalatov and Magomedkerimov), asked Umaratov to replace Magomedkerimov on short notice, to which he quickly agreed.[22]

Umalatov was originally not in fight shape when he agreed to substitute in place of his comrade Magomedkerimov.[100] He already weighed 92 kg and was supposed to cutdown to 77 kg in a matter of two weeks. He was already in self-doubt that he could never make that weight.[100] But he only agreed to do it, because it was his one and only chance to fight in US-based promotions, if he missed on this opportunity, he would end up, stuck in Russian MMA scene for the foreseeable future.[22][100]

In order to prepare for his PFL debut, Umalatov spent three weeks in quarantine.[107] He was only allowed to train inside his hotel room. To get into fight shape, he enlisted the help of his teammate & friend Akhmed "Butcher" Aliev.[107]

Umalatov was still under contract with Eagle Fighting Championship when he made his debut for his PFL on May 6, 2021. He was allowed to do so, as he had stipulation in his contract that he could leave the Eagle FC at any time if got contracted to foreign MMA promotion.[100][12]

For his first fight for PFL, Umalatov was initially offered one-fight "Temporary employment contract" by management, which would only be extended if he wins that fight against Kyron "Mamba" Bowen.[12]

Umalatov original debut for PFL was supposed to happen way back in 2019, to fight as a substitute. However that didn't happen, as the organization to chose to sign American fighter in his stead, because Umalatov was still performing in Russian MMA circuit.[12] This was because American based fighter take less time adapt than Russian one. However, If a Russian fighter is already present in US soil, PFL organization is more inclined to offer them a fight deal.[12]

Umalatov doesn't have any idols in MMA. Although, he is most motivated by Khabib Nurmagomedov success in the combat sports of MMA.[12] Speaking of Khabib, Umalatov personally likes the Khabib's fighting style. As he feels that Khabib combat prowess best represent all of Russian fighting style.[20]

Umalatov attributes Fedor "The Last Emperor" Emelianenko as the entity who popularized the combat sports of MMA in the entirety of Russian Federation.[20] He considers Emelianenko and Khabib as two of the most paramount MMA athletes to come out of Russia.[20]

Umalatov favorite training partners are Ramazan Kurmagomedov and Johnny Eblen.[105] Training with such high level fighters allows him to push his limits and ultimately improve his performance level.[106] He also trained and sparred Movlid "Killer" Khaybulaev, Nikolai Aleksakhin, Akhmed "Butcher" Aliev & Magomed Magomedkerimov in the past.[12][100]

After Umalatov's victory over Dilano "Postman" Taylor, he was invited to train and spar with then UFC champion Kamaru Usman.[100]

He prefers life some aspect of American life better than that of Russia or Dagestan. As in Florida, he lives a carefree and quiet life, undisturbed by anyone.[100] Umalatov also prefers general American public attitude towards MMA fighters than Dagestani public attitude.[100] Like most Russian fighters get ignored by Dagestani public unless they're champions of UFC. But here in America people act nicely towards towards Russian fighters even if they're fighting at non-UFC promotion; as they would ask to take picture with these Russian fighters and would be keen on talking about their previous fights in detail.[100]
