Win Methods
Tahir Abdullayev, better known as "Tank", brings a 20-3 record into every walk to the cage — and in a division as crowded as welterweight, every single win matters.
A balanced operator — 11 wins by KO, 7 by submission, 2 on the scorecards. No single weapon to game-plan around, which is exactly the problem.
He arrives on a 5-fight win streak — most recently Jefferson Nascimento, KO/TKO (Punches) R3. Streaks like that don't stay unnoticed for long.
