Ruslan Abiltarov is someone to watch. At 21 years old he has fought 28 times in the past two years. He has a (16-4) record professionally and was (8-0) on the amateur circuit. Regardless of who he is fighting, the amount of experience hes pulling together in such a short amount of time is ridiculous especially given his age. I expect he will get a shot in the UFC or Bellator sooner or later if he stays active like this. Any thoughts?

I've only ever seen his fight against James Brum. Brum is a beast and there is no shame in that loss. Abiltarov looks to have good wrestling and speed. I was going to say he looked a bit small at 135, Brum is only 1" taller but looked to have 10 pounds on him, he should cut down to 125 if possible, but I see he is now listed at 125. He keeps on winning and we could see him in a bigger org soon. He should fight again in Cage Warriors, that org is ******* on fire IMO.
