Zabit Magomedsharipov’s undefeated brother gets biggest test yet at PFL Dubai

The PFL is building out its Dubai card for November 14 at the Coca-Cola Arena, adding two significant bouts to an event already headlined by a heavyweight title clash between Vadim Nemkov and Sergey Bilostenniy.

Undefeated featherweight Khasan Magomedsharipov will face Hungarian veteran Adam Borics in what shapes up as the toughest test of Magomedsharipov's career to date. Khasan, the brother of former UFC standout Zabit Magomedsharipov, holds an 11-0 record and has finished eight of those wins, including a recent first-round submission of Joshua Weems. Borics (20-4) brings considerable experience and ranked status to the matchup but has struggled lately, losing two of his last three bouts—most recently a decision loss to A.J. McKee.

In a bantamweight contest, former Bellator champion Sergio Pettis (25-8) will square off against PFL debutant Joji Goto (20-9). Pettis is looking to bounce back from an April decision loss to Mitchell McKee that halted a two-fight winning streak. Goto arrives on a positive note after submitting Azizbek Temirov in the first round.

The November 14 card showcases the PFL's continued expansion and talent acquisition, pairing established names like Pettis with rising prospects such as the undefeated Magomedsharipov brother. Borics' experience and current struggles make him an intriguing obstacle for Khasan's perfect record.
