– I would take Khabib’s words seriously. He once said he would end his career and ended it, even though many thought it was just words. Why does he do it? There was a lot of MMA in his life. From early childhood he was engaged in martial arts. Maybe now, when he doesn’t need it anymore to make money, and before that, he decided to walk away from MMA completely and change his life.
Even psychologists advise changing their activities every seven years, and Khabib has been doing it for much longer. I think this is a normal decision, because he has already accumulated moral fatigue from martial arts and everything related to it, ”quotes Metaratings.ru Vasilevsky.
Nurmagomedov became the UFC champion in 2018 and made three belt defenses, ending his career in the fall of 2020. Under his guidance, Islam Makhachev and Usman Nurmagomedov won the championship titles in the heavyweight divisions respectively. lightweight UFC and Bellator.
