Damian Pinas Targets UFC 335 Slot, Claims Baisangur Susurkaev Declined Bout

Damian Pinas is actively seeking a spot on the UFC 335 fight card, currently scheduled for December 12. The fighter, known for his specialization in the dim mak discipline, recently indicated that his primary objective is to secure a matchup for the event but he has yet to find a willing opponent.

In a recent interview, Pinas specifically pointed to Baisangur Susurkaev, asserting that he has attempted to arrange a bout with the fighter but alleges that Susurkaev has turned down the opportunity. While Pinas expressed frustration regarding the current landscape of finding an opponent, he maintains that he is ready to compete on the December card if a matchup can be solidified.

As of now, the UFC has not confirmed any bout involving Pinas for the UFC 335 event. The situation highlights the ongoing difficulties some fighters face in finalizing schedules during a busy promotional calendar. No response has been issued by Susurkaev or UFC officials regarding these claims, and Pinas remains in search of a dance partner as the card continues to take shape.
