Shavkat Rakhmonov and Sora Rakhmonova could become the first sibling duo in UFC history if the 24-year-old Kazakh representative manages to sign a contract with the world’s strongest league.
Last Friday, 24-year-old Rakhmonova, who competes in the bantamweight division, added to her record with a fourth professional victory, finishing Russian Valeria Karyagina at NFC 51 in Almaty, after which she turned to the UFC president with a request to give her a chance to prove herself.
“UFC, Dana White?” Rakhmonova wrote on the social network, posting a video with the end of the fight.
Undefeated Shavkat Rakhmonov, ranked sixth in the UFC welterweight ranking, also supported his sister’s aspirations to get into the octagon.
“Coming soon to the UFC,” Nomad wrote, commenting on his sister’s performance.
In total, Sora Rakhmonova, who began her professional career in 2021, has four wins, including three early wins, and one loss by unanimous decision.
Note that at one time Naoki Inoue and Mizuki Inoue, who are brother and sister, performed in the UFC, but their short-term runs in the organization did not overlap in time.
