Shara Bullet vs. Neiman Gracie booked for grappling contest

Sharabutdin Magomedov and Neiman Gracie will meet in a grappling contest at Real American Freestyle in Moscow.

RAF recently announced that the Ultimate Fighting Championship middleweight will face the former Bellator MMA and Professional Fighters League welterweight on Sept. 5.


Magomedov last competed in June, earning a unanimous decision over Michel Pereira in the UFC. The Russian previously tested his grappling skills under the Hype FC banner, taking on lightweights Arman Tsarukyan and Edson Barboza, with both matches ending in draws.

Gracie, meanwhile, has not competed since losing to Magomed Umalatov in Professional Fighters League in August 2024. The Brazilian challenged Rory MacDonald for the Bellator MMA welterweight title in 2019 but came up short and went 4-5 thereafter. Gracie's most recent grappling appearance came at ADXC 1 in 2023, where he submitted Benson Henderson.
