Islam Dulatov vs. Levan Chokheli Booked for UFC Saudi Arabia
Welterweight prospects Islam Dulatov and Levan Chokheli are reportedly set to collide at UFC Saudi Arabia on Dec. 5.
· VILLAND PICK editorial
Islam Dulatov is set to make his second octagon appearance against fellow prospect Levan Chokheli at UFC Saudi Arabia on Dec. 5, according to a report from Marcel Dorff.
Germany's Dulatov (12-1) earned his UFC contract through Dana White’s Contender Series in 2024. He went on to make an impressive promotional debut in July 2025, stopping Adam Fugitt via first-round knockout at the 4:06 mark after dropping him with a left hook and follow-up punches. Dulatov was previously scheduled to fight Wellington Turman in July, but that bout was canceled after Dulatov fell ill.
Chokheli (15-3, 1 NC) also heads into the matchup following a fast-paced debut victory inside the Octagon. The Georgian welterweight required just 23 seconds to secure a first-round stoppage win over Leon Shahbazyan in June.
The promotion has not yet officially announced a headliner for UFC Saudi Arabia, though a bout between Israel Adesanya and Sharabutdin Magomedov has been reported as the targeted main event.
