The 25-year-old is scheduled to face Carlos Calderon at UFC Fight Night: Cortes Acosta vs. Walker.

A tough first night against Rodriguez

Bashi made his promotional debut on January 11, 2025, against Christian Rodriguez at UFC Fight Night: Dern vs. Ribas 2 in Las Vegas. Rodriguez won by unanimous decision after three rounds, with all three judges scoring it 29–28.

Bashi secured his first UFC victory
