Jumabieke Tuerxun is a Kazakh-Chinese mixed martial arts fighter. He currently fights as a Bantamweight.[2]
Early life
Jumabieke is an ethnic Kazakh from the Chinese autonomous region of Xinjiang.[3]
Martial arts background
Jumabieke trains out of China’s elite Xian Physical Education University, where he is a pupil of Zhao Xuejun.[4] Jumabieke is a well-rounded fighter who combines pinpoint Sanda striking with freestyle Wrestling. Jumabieke is also associated with Phuket Top Team, Thailand.
Mixed martial arts career
Jumabieke fought on the Chinese regional scene before joining Ranik Ultimate Fighting Federation (RUFF China) in 2011. He had a KO win over Bolin Li at RUFF 1 and a unanimous decision victory over Yanfei Zhao at RUFF 2.
Jumabieke rematched and defeated Honggang Yao via unanimous decision (3 rounds) at Legend Fighting Championship 7 for the bantamweight strap. He then returned to RUFF [5] garnering a shot at the bantamweight strap against Irshaad Sayed,[6] but the fight was cancelled due to UFC interest in Jumabieke.[7]
Ultimate Fighting Championship
The UFC signing Jumabieke was widely reported in early 2013,[8] however Jumabieke had to wait over a year to debut for the promotion. During the hiatus Jumabieke stated his professional mixed martial arts record was not an accurate, even claiming he fought three times in December 2013.[9]
With an official MMA record of 15-0 Jumabieke was scheduled to fight Mark Eddiva at The Ultimate Fighter: China Finale in a featherweight fight. Eddiva controlled Tuerxun en route to a unanimous decision.[10]
Jumabieke returned to the Octagon at The Ultimate Fighter 19 Finale against Leandro Issa. In a Fight of the Night battle, Issa caught Tuerxun in an armbar in the third round.[11][12]
Jumabieke was scheduled to meet Patrick Williams but due to injury he instead fought Marcus Brimage on November 8, 2014 at UFC Fight Night: Rockhold vs. Bisping, in Sydney Australia.[13] He was defeated via first round knockout due to a head kick and follow up punches and was subsequently released from the promotion.
