A two-time Olympic judoka at 5-0 against an unbeaten 25-year-old at 6-0, both debuting, with not one recorded UFC round between them.
This is the thinnest fight on the card from a data point of view: two unbeaten heavyweights, both making their UFC debuts, neither with a single recorded round in the database. Louie Sutherland came off the Mahjoub booking and Joel Faglier replaced him; UFCStats listed the new pairing in the first week of October. There is no composite rating, no chin rating, no quality-of-victory score and no sty…
Mahjoub (5-0) makes his UFC debut and has no fight in the database, so there is no composite rating, chin rating, style profile or quality-of-victory score for him, and the fighters table holds no height or reach. From outside the database: he is an Iranian-born judoka fighting out of Montreal who won Asian Championships gold at -100kg in 2013 and an IJF Grand Slam in Moscow the same year, took Asian silver in 2012 and the Asian Junior title in 2010, represented Iran at Rio 2016, and competed for the IOC Refugee Olympic Team at Tokyo 2020, reaching the round of 16 (Wikipedia). His five MMA wins are three knockouts, one submission and one decision: a 1:45 TKO of Jesus Navarette on debut in November 2022, a TKO of Rodrigo Duarte for the vacant BFC heavyweight title in September 2025, a unanimous decision over Gamzat Sirazhudinov in Seoul in October 2025, and an armbar of Pietro Gentile de Oliveira at Unified MMA 67 in February 2026. He is 34.
Faglier (6-0), 'The Sniper', also debuts with no fight in the database and therefore no ratings of any kind — the empty columns on this page are an absence of data, not a low score. From outside the database: he is 25, from Augusta, Georgia, trains at his family's gym, and has five finishes in six wins, with two knockouts and at least three submissions. He weighed 266lb at his most recent weigh-in. Notable results are a unanimous decision over the experienced regional heavyweight Cody East at Fury FC 116 in February 2026, a rear-naked choke of Omar El-Sahlah at Fury FC 98 and an arm-triangle choke of Ose Abunaw at NFC 171 (Combat Edge). He has fought for Fury FC, NFC and Conflict MMA.
Neither fighter has a fighter_metrics row — no composite, chin rating or style score exists on either side of this bout
The database holds no height or reach for either man, so even the physical comparison is unavailable
Mahjoub is a two-time Olympian in judo with 2013 Asian Championships and Moscow Grand Slam gold at -100kg — the only elite credential in the fight
His armbar of Gentile de Oliveira in February shows the judo converting into submissions, not just takedowns
Faglier is 6-0 with five finishes, including a rear-naked choke and an arm-triangle, so he is not lost on the floor
Faglier's decision over the experienced Cody East at Fury FC 116 is the best-tested line on either record
Nine years between them: Faglier is 25, Mahjoub 34 and debuting late after a full international judo career
Both unbeaten, so neither has ever been seen in trouble
Zero recorded UFC rounds between the two — every number in this write-up comes from outside the database
An Olympic judo pedigree is a real credential but it is not an MMA rating, and five professional fights is a small body of evidence
Faglier's finish rate was built on regional opposition and the exact breakdown of his wins differs between sources
Neither man has lost, so neither has been tested in adversity — the most important unknown in a heavyweight fight
Mahjoub is 34 with fifteen years of international judo behind him, and the wear that carries is unmeasured
Faglier weighed 266lb at his last weigh-in; whether that holds up over three rounds against a grappler is unknown
A short-notice replacement pairing on both sides, so camp quality for this specific matchup is unknowable
