Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani stopped Farman Hasanov via TKO (doctor stoppage) at 2:11 of round three in a welterweight bout at UFC Fight Night: Moicano vs. Nolan on October 31, 2026. The southpaw Lebosnoyani controlled the striking through all three rounds with leg kicks, body work, and sharp punch combinations, repeatedly neutralizing Hasanov's takedown attempts. Sherdog's scorers had Lebosnoyani ahead on all three rounds, with at least one 10-8 in round two, heading into the decisive third. The finish came when a severe cut opened along Hasanov's left eyebrow; referee Dan Miragliotta paused the action for the cageside physician, who advised the bout should not continue. The loss ended Hasanov's 5-0 unbeaten start to his UFC career, while Lebosnoyani improved to 12-2.

Fight Overview

Unbeaten Azerbaijani prospect Farman Hasanov, 6-0 and fresh off a successful UFC debut in Baku, steps up against Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani, who brings a 2-0 UFC record and high-volume striking built on 100% takedown defense in his Octagon appearances. Two fighters in the early stages of staking a claim in the welterweight division test their styles against each other in what amounts to a meaningful step-up fight for Hasanov.

Keys to Victory

Farman Hasanov

  1. Use wrestling and level changes to drag Lebosnoyani into grappling exchanges where his volume striking advantage disappears.
  2. Leverage his strong strike accuracy to pick clean counter shots rather than matching Lebosnoyani's output in a volume trade.
  3. Control range to avoid giving Lebosnoyani extended stretches of clean space to land his four-plus strikes per minute.

Jean-Paul Lebosnoyani

  1. Keep the fight standing and impose his striking volume early to build a scoring lead that forces Hasanov to chase the fight.
  2. Maintain his perfect takedown defense to shut down Hasanov's primary path to controlling where the fight takes place.
  3. Use footwork and lateral movement to make Hasanov miss on his precise counter shots and punish the openings that create.
