russian fighter Ikram Aliskerov told how the former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov helped him get into the octagon.
Aliskerov, 29, trains at Nurmagomedov Gym. He has 13 wins and one loss.
– Khabib asked me to be put on the Contender show. We have a manager with him – Ali Abdel-Aziz. At that time, our fighters weren’t particularly drawn to the Contender, but Khabib contributed to it. Only me and another girl (Victoria Dudakova) were from Russia that season. Of course, we meet him at the gym, we train together. He told me what to do and how to do it, he supported me. When Khabib comes to the gym, he always helps and advises everyone,” Metaratings.ru Aliskerov quotes.
Aliskerov will make his UFC debut with American Phil Howes on May 6 in Newark.
