Also known as Mohamad Abdulaev, Abdulaev turned pro in 2001 and has had limited success. Although he won his first 11 bouts, including a victory over former IBF Lightweight Title holder Philip Holiday, he was KO'd in 2003 by journeyman Emmanuel Clottey. He has since lost to Miguel Cotto and Andreas Kotelnik.
