Amar Suloev (born 7 January 1976) is an Armenian Mixed martial artist of Ezidi Kurdish origin with a record of 24-7-0[1] He is a kickboxer/wrestler who has last fought Jacek Buczko at M-1 Challenge, where he won by a TKO (kick and punches). Suloev has 24 wins on his record where 15 of them are in the first round, he has notable vitories against Yushin Okami, Dean Lister, Murilo Bustamante, and Andrei Semenov.

UFC career

At UFC 35 Soloev came to fight in the premier mma oragnization of the United States where he faced top light heavyweight Chuck Liddell. The fight went to decision, where Liddell was awarded the win on points. The fight was intense and Soloev demonstrated his level of skill with kickboxing as he avoided the trademark power shots of the feared American fighter. Despite the loss Soloev was one of only seven fighters to take Liddell to decision. The UFC invited Suloev back to UFC 37 to fight Phil Baroni, where a controversial knee by Suloev was landed while Baroni was on his knees getting up, shortly after the referee stood them up, Baroni landed a flurry of punches which stopped Soloev.

Pride

After a brief stint in the UFC, Soloev returned to M-1 Global for a few fights before jumping to the top Japanese mma production Pride Fighting Championships. Soloev's first fight in Pride came against top Brazilian Jiu Jitsu ace Dean Lister, which ended in a decision win for Soloev. His next fight came against another highly regarded jiu jitsu fighter Paulo Filho, however in this fight despite some aggression and relative success in striking on the feet, Filho proved to be the far better grappler, as he got a subission victory. Top Brazilian Top Team fighter, Murilo Bustamante faced Soloev in his next Pride Fight, and on this occasion Soloev was able to largely keep the fight standing, where his strong kickboxing background guided him to a victory. In his final Pride fight Denis Kang was his opponent, and much like the fight against Filho Soloev was uncessful in avoiding the submission once the fight reached the canvas.
