Fiziev (8-1-0, 2-1-0 UFC) has two UFC victories, against Alex White and Marc Diakiese. Fiziev has suffered a single defeat as a professional fighter. That loss came against Magomed Mustafaev at UFC Fight Night St. Petersburg. Fiziev won six straight fights before signing with the UFC, competing in such promotions as Road FC and Titan Fighting Championships. Only two of Fizievs' nine professional bouts have gone the distance.

There is no word as to when Fiziev will compete next. He has already competed three times in just over a year with the UFC.
