Muslim Magomedovich Salikhov (Russian: Муслим Магомедович Салихов; born June 9, 1984) is a Russian professional mixed martial artist and Sanda fighter. He currently competes in the Welterweight division in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). A multiple time Wushu Sanda world champion, Salikhov occupies a place alongside Hossein Ojaghi as one of only two non-Chinese athletes to have won the Wushu Sanda King's Cup.
Personal life
[edit]Muslim Salikhov was born in Buynaksk, Dagestan; his ethnicity is Kumyk.[6] In 1995, he began to practice Wushu Sanda at the Five Directions of the World, a school famous for combining general and martial arts education.
Muslim is an alumnus of the famous Dagestani sports-dedicated boarding school Five Directions of the World.[7]
Wushu
[edit]Wushu Sanda
[edit]Salikhov faced Liu Hailong who held the title "King of Sanda" at the 2003 World Wushu Championships in Macau. Both were evenly matched, with Liu Hailong declared the winner.[8] Salikhov was the Sanshou champion at the 2004 European Wushu Championships held in Moscow and he became the World Champion in 2005. Muslim Salikhov is often acknowledged as one of the best Wushu Sanda competitors in history.[9]
In February 2006, he participated in the first international "King of Sanda" tournament in Chongqing and became the first non-Chinese to win the title.[10] He again won the world title in 2007[9] and 2009.[11] At the World Wushu Championships, he became one of the most decorated sanda athletes of all time and was the first sanda athlete to win five gold medals.[12] He was also a gold medalist at the 2008 Beijing Wushu Tournament,[13] and won medals at the 2009 World Games and the World Combat Games.[14]

[edit]Salikhov made his professional MMA debut in July 2011. Over the next year and a half, he earned a record of two wins and one loss.

[edit]By early 2013, Salikhov signed with M-1 Global, preparing with Phuket Top Team for his mixed martial arts debut.[15][16] He fought three times for the promotion, going undefeated during this run.
Other promotions
