He has also competed in Absolute Championship Akhmat (ACA), where he was the ACA Light Heavyweight Championship. As of October 10, 2023, he is No. 5 in the Bellator Light Heavyweight Rankings.[1]

Biography

Dovlet was born in the city of Türkmenabat, but most of the time he lived in a village not far from there. At the age of 6, the boy went not only to school, but he studied at the 1st comprehensive school in his native village, but also signed up for a karate section. It was easy to get there - half an hour on foot or five minutes by car. After several years of training, Yagshimuradov became one of the best karatekas among his peers, took the championship title in the category of teenagers under 11 years old and eventually won gold at the national level tournament.[2][3][4]

In the 7th grade, he switched to kickboxing, and even while studying at the lyceum, he continued to train. Upon reaching the age of majority, the future fighter joined the army, and after demobilization, he lived in his homeland for a little less than a year and left for Kharkov to enter the university.[3][4]

At the age of 17 Ýagşymyradow went to serve in the Armed Forces of Turkmenistan. He has the title of senior sergeant.[2][4]

Yagshimuradov has resided in Kharkiv, Ukraine, for the last twelve years, constructing a life with his kin and earning a living as a pugilist and entrepreneur. He possessed and managed two ventures and was a man of business with three diverse diplomas, among them a bachelor's degree in economics and law conferred by Kharkiv National University of Economics in 2015.[5][6][7]

Mixed martial arts career

Early career

As a student, in 2011, Dovletdzhan began to visit the hall where the guys were taught the art of universal combat. In March 2012, the coach asked his ward to compete at the Oplot Challenge 1 tournament against the Czech Rudolf Kriz, which started the path of the Turkmen fighter in mixed martial arts.[3]

The first fight was a draw, and in the next 7 performances, Yagshimuradov got 4 wins and 3 losses. This was explained by the fact that, due to inexperience, Dovlet did not think about a sports career, he went to fights on a weekly notice, but later the situation changed. At the end of his studies at the university, he went on a series of 5 victories and had "gold" behind him in the light heavyweight tournament. The native of Chardzhou held his last fight in OC against Magomed Ankalaev, losing to him by decision of the judges, and then a serious career rise awaited him.[3]

Having spent one fight under the auspices of the RFP, and knocking out Maxim Kushnerenko in 27 seconds, Yagshimuradov was invited to M-1, where he was defeated by Mikhail Rogozin. The failure was followed by success and, having obtained another victory, with a record of 11-5 and one draw, the fighter signed a contract with Absolute Championship Akhmat.[3]

Absolute Championship Akhmat

The first fight took place abroad - in Austria at ACB 52, where Dovlet finished Dan Konecki. This was followed by victories over Jared Torgeson at ACB 62 and Joachim Christensen at ACB 75, the knockout of which was marked by a bonus, as the best of the evening.[3]

At ACB 79: Aguev vs. Alfaya, Dovlet faced Luis Fernando Miranda in a title eliminator, defeating Miranda by the way of knockout in just a minute of the fight, and less than 4 months later at ACB 86, a duel for the belt took place. The confrontation with Batraz Agnaev ended in Yagshimuradov submitting Agnaev via rear-naked choke in the third round, winning the bout and ACB Light Heavyweight Championship.[3]

On February 16, 2019, at ACA 92: Yagshimuradov vs. Celiński, Yagshimuradov faced Karol Celińskt for inaugural ACA Light Heavyweight Championship after the league was renamed, winning the bout and title via TKO in round fourth.[8]

On December 14, 2019, at ACA 103: Yagshimuradov vs. Butorin, Dovlet defended the AСA Light Heavyweight title against Alexey Butorin,[9][10] winning the fight via unanimous decision.[11][12]
