Ah, so here’s this real jaw-dropper about Ahmad Hassanzada, who I guess won’t be showing up in UFC Kansas City anytime soon. Instead of getting ready to punch his way into the octagon, he’s got a date with a judge – and not the kind who rates your style and technique, let me tell ya.
AG Fight was first on the scene with this bombshell, but can we just take a second to absorb this? Hassanzada, who’s like 28, ended up in some serious trouble. Sacramento authorities nabbed him, and now he’s sitting in county jail with charges related to sexual assault on a minor. Yikes. We’re talking two felonies here, folks. Honestly, it makes you wonder how things get to this point. Anyway, he’s due in court on Tuesday, with bail set at a whopping $400k. Not exactly pocket change, huh?
Just another twist in the life of Hassanzada, who was all set to brawl it out with Evan Elder. This was going to be his UFC debut, too. He’d already shown what he could do back in 2024 on DWCS with a slick submission win against Dylan Mantello. But now, with this whole arrest situation, he’s basically out of the picture. In the ring and, well, in the organization itself.
Evan Elder, who kinda started this whole mess of a story, is now gonna face Gague Young. Who knew a fight lineup could change as fast as a reality TV plot twist?
The UFC’s already got some words out there; they’re like, “Yeah, Hassanzada’s out, and no longer with us.” But Dana White, usually the loudest voice in the room, has been strangely silent on this. Maybe he’s just taking a breather, or maybe crafting a statement that won’t reel in even more controversy. Who knows.
Anyway, there it is. Hassanzada’s switch from fighter to defendant is like a bizarre, unwanted career change. Some stories you just can’t make up – no, seriously!
