Real American Freestyle continues to bolster its growing roster of Ultimate Fighting Championship talent.
The freestyle wrestling promotion recently announced that Sharabutdin "Shara Bullet" Magomedov has signed with RAF. He joins other current UFC stars like Merab Dvalishvili, Belal Muhammad and Khamzat Chimaev in joining the promotion.
Magomedov’s arrival at RAF comes after the promotion recently introduced its crossover championship titles, allowing active MMA fighters to compete for belts separate from the promotion's elite freestyle wrestlers.
Magomedov owns a 17-1 professional MMA record and has established himself as a fan favorite in the UFC's middleweight division.
