Shara Bullet has his first RAF assignment, and it’s none other than former Bellator title contender Neiman Gracie.
The promotion announced Monday that Bullet is set to wrestle Gracie at RAF Moscow, which takes place at Russia’s VTB Arena on Sept. 5.
See the official announcement below.
Bullet (a.k.a. Shara Magomedov) has risen to prominence in recent years as an up-and-coming contender in the UFC’s middleweight division. He is 17-1 in MMA, including a 6-1 mark inside the octagon. He has won his past
two fights, scoring decision wins over Michel Pereira and Marc-Andre Barriault.
Outside of MMA, Magomedov has also dabbled in grappling going the distance with Edson Barboza and Arman Tsarukyan in un-scored exhibitions for Hype FC.
Gracie competes for a major U.S. promotion for the first time since his last PFL bout in 2024, when he was defeated by Magomed Umalatov in a welterweight tournament semifinal. The 37-year-old was a contender in Bellator’s 170-pound division, losing to champion Rory MacDonald in 2019. Gracie’s MMA record stands at 13-6.
Like much of his illustrious family, Gracie is also known for his grappling exploits outside of MMA, including competing at numerous top BJJ tournaments. He also steps onto the RAF mats for the first time.
