The Road to UFC 2022 semifinals will take place in Abu Dhabi after the marquee UFC 280: Oliveira vs. Makhachev at the Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi on October 23.
The Road to UFC, which returned after a seven-year hiatus earlier this years, presents a “win and advance” opportunity for the top Asian fighters who are split between four weight-classes (flyweight, bantamweight, featherweight and lightweight). The winner in each weight class is set to earn a UFC contract.
The tournament began with 32 Asian MMA fighters, with the quarterfinals taking place on June 9-10 in Singapore. The fighters in Road to UFC hail from Japan, Korea, Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, India, and the UFC Academy in China.
India’s Anshul Jubli qualified for the semifinal after his opponent Patrick Sho Usami was removed due to weight management issues. Anshul had entered the contest with an undefeated Pro MMA record of 5-0. He will face South Korea’s Kyung Pyo Kim in the last four.
