Profile

Overview

Twenty-three seconds. That is how long Levan Chokheli's UFC career has lasted so far, and it ended with a first-round KO/TKO win.

The Georgian from Tbilisi fights at welterweight out of Q MMA and is 1-0 in the UFC. His professional record across all promotions is 15-3-0. He's an orthodox fighter with a 6'0" frame.

One fight, one finish. It's a small sample, but it is a clean one.

UFC Career

Chokheli made his UFC debut on the Kape vs. Horiguchi card, facing Leon Shahbazyan. The fight ended in round 1 at 0:23 by KO/TKO.

He carries a one-fight win streak into his next fight.

Fighting Style

The career numbers come from that single UFC appearance, so treat them with caution. In that fight, he landed at a high clip, absorbed very little, and was accurate while defending well. That is what you would expect from a fight that lasted 23 seconds.

The grappling side is a blank. He took few takedowns and attempted no submissions to speak of, and his takedown defense was never meaningfully tested. We have no real read yet on how he handles being taken down.
