Mixed martial arts record from Sherdog

Jessin Ayari (born May 31, 1992) is a Tunisian-German professional mixed martial artist. He was the formal Superior Fighting Championship Welterweight Champion.[8] and competed in welterweight division of Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC).[1]

Background

[edit]

Ayari started playing football when he was young, and played for TSV 1904 Feucht youth team as a defensive midfielder in Germany. He started training in MMA at the age of fifteen after becoming frustrated with his football teammates who did not pull their weight and give as much as him. Ayari soon transitioned to MMA and completed his first MMA fight two years later.[9]

Since MMA gyms are hard to find in Germany, Ayari goes to different gyms to train in each specific combat sport discipline. A typical day for his training starts with strength and conditioning training at Power Athletics. In the evening, he either does boxing training at West End, BJJ training at Fight Gym, MMA sparring with Hammers Team or wrestling training at Johannis Grizzlys.[1]

Ayari was expected to make his UFC debut against Emil Meek on September 3, 2016, at UFC Fight Night: Arlovski vs. Barnett in Hamburg, Germany.[11][12][13] However, Meek was pulled from the fight due to a USADA conflict where receiving medical treatment of the fight against Rousimar Palhares prior to signing with the UFC[14] and he was replaced by Jim Wallhead.[15][16] Ayari won his first UFC fight via split decision.[17][18]

He next faced Darren Till on May 28, 2017, at UFC Fight Night: Gustafsson vs. Teixeira.[19] After three rounds of fighting, the judges handed down the win to Till via unanimous decision.[20]
