UFC 311 opens with an exciting bout between No. 11 ranked UFC Flyweight Tagir Ulanbekov of Russia and unbeaten DWCS alum Clayton Carpenter of America at Inglewood, California, this weekend. Both flyweights have won their last two fights in the Octagon, but while Clayton Carpenter appeared last year, Ulanbekov has not fought since December 2023. The Russian is a considerable favorite to hand Carpenter his first professional loss.

The 33-year-old Dagestani debuted in the UFC in 2020 but has not been active, notching only five fights in the promotion. However, his 4-1 record means he is ranked in the 125-pound division. The one-time Fight Night Global flyweight champion could not compete last June after coming in at three and a half pounds over the limit in his scheduled bout with Joshua Van. Tagir Ulanbekov defeated Cody Durden at UFC 296 via a face crank submission in the second round. A Sambo stylist, Ulanbekov won several medals in European Combat Sambo before transitioning to MMA.
