Résumé du résultat
Dustin Stoltzfus defeated Mansur Abdul-Malik by submission (rear naked choke) at 4:25 of round two in their middleweight contest at UFC 330: Makhachev vs. Machado Garry on August 15, 2026. Stoltzfus established grappling control early, capitalizing on a missed Abdul-Malik hook to execute a powerful mid-cage slam and follow up with ground-and-pound through the first round. Abdul-Malik found brief top position in round two after a sweep, but Stoltzfus regained control with a right hand behind the ear that put him on the canvas. Stoltzfus transitioned through a loose guillotine attempt, settled into side control with heavy punches, then took the back and sank the rear naked choke to force the tap. The finish came as an upset — Abdul-Malik had been the pre-fight betting favorite.
Aperçu du combat
Two middleweights in identical situations — both coming off recent losses, both needing a win to stay relevant — gives this UFC 330 preliminary bout more weight than its card position implies. Mansur Abdul-Malik, a powerful striker with seven career knockouts and a 79.5-inch reach, enters as a massive favorite against submission specialist Dustin Stoltzfus, whose only viable path to victory runs through the mat.

- Avoid trading on the feet where Abdul-Malik's reach and power create an overwhelming disadvantage.
- Grind through multiple grappling exchanges to accumulate damage and drain Abdul-Malik's conditioning in later rounds.
Mansur Abdul-Malik
- Use his 79.5-inch reach to engage Stoltzfus at distance and land heavy combinations before he can shoot.
- Sprawl aggressively and stay disciplined — his path to victory is standing, not wrestling with a submission specialist.
- Convert his power into an emphatic early finish to emphatically answer questions raised by his first career loss.
