Jairzinho Rozenstruik is returning to MMA with Fight Nation Championship (FNC). The Surinamese heavyweight, who left the UFC in early 2025, will make his debut for the organisation on February 6 during FNC 37 in Munich, Germany.
FNC announced Rozenstruik’s arrival on Tuesday. His opponent has not yet been announced. No details have been released about the duration of his contract or the number of fights. It is also unknown whether the agreement is exclusive.
Rozenstruik fought 13 times in the UFC. After his defeat to Sergei Pavlovich in February 2025, the organisation parted ways with him. Since then, he has fought twice in Dirty Boxing. With his move to FNC, he is resuming his MMA career.
The 38-year-old Rozenstruik recorded UFC victories over, among others, Tai Tuivasa, Shamil Gaziev, Junior dos Santos, Alistair Overeem and Andrei Arlovski.
