An MMA fighter who was to do his UFC debut next weekend is no longer with the company after being arrested for accusations of sex crime for children, according to reports.
Ahmad Hassanzada, a light prospect of Sacramento, was to participate in the UFC for the first time in Kansas City on April 26, seven months after winning a large contract by winning the series of candidates from Dana White.
However, according to the Sacramento KCRA 3 television station, Hassanzada’s career with the promotion of White is over before it even begins to follow her arrest in connection with a survey on children’s sexual crimes that started in 2024.
It is believed that the 28-year-old turned into police on Saturday afternoon after an arrest warrant for his arrest.
He was sentenced to the main prison of Sacramento county around 2:20 p.m. Saturday and faces charges of “obscene or lascivious law with a child under the age of 14” and “obscene law on the child victim of 14 or 15 years old, defendant 10 years older than the victim”. The deposit was set at $ 400,000, by Mania MMA.
Hassanzada will be arrested on Tuesday, April 22, adds the KCRA 3 report. The investigation into the sexual crime of the Sacramento police would still be in progress.
