Mansur Abdul-Malik

As of September 29, 2026, Mansur Abdul-Malik is listed by the UFC as an active middleweight who trains at Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas. The Pittsburgh-born fighter uses a freestyle style and stands 6 feet 2 inches tall. UFC’s profile also identifies him as a former Division I wrestler who spent two years at the University of Maryland and won a Maryland state high-school wrestling championship at Laurel High School.

Abdul-Malik earned a UFC contract after stopping Wes Schultz on Dana White’s Contender Series on August 13, 2024. He made his UFC debut on November 9, 2024, against Duško Todorović. Subsequent UFC coverage has described him as a thoughtful, soft-spoken athlete outside the cage whose approach changes sharply once competition begins, where he applies pressure, athleticism and a willingness to attack from striking and grappling positions. His UFC profile records a later victory over Antonio Trocoli on December 6, 2025, followed by bouts with Yousri Belgaroui and Dustin Stoltzfus in 2026.
