On 15 December 2018, Biyarslanov made his professional debut against the Mexican Ernesto Cardona Sanchez. Biyarslanov won the fight in the opening round after trapping Sanchez against the ropes and landing a combination of punches to the head and body which sent his opponent to the canvas.

Biyarslanov secured his second professional win after knocking his opponent down three times in the opening round. [4]

[5] On 20 April 2019, Biyarslanov fought against the experienced Cristian Arrazola. In the first round, Biyarslanov landed a combination of punches which forced his opponent to take a knee; Arrazola beat the count but was immediately put back on the canvas by a right hand. Arrazola beat the count again but referee Mark Simmons stopped the bout at the end of the opening round after he deemed Arrazola unfit to carry on. [6]
