David made his MMA debut on 19 October 2013 at International Ring Fight Arena 5, where he lost by decision against Mattias Rosenlind.
Teymur dropped Nunez with knees to the body early and with a left hook late in the fight.
In round 2 he scored two knockdowns, first by another straight left and moments later he won the fight by knockout after dropping Novelli to the canvas by a right-left hook combination.
