Russian fighter Daria Zhelezniakova explained why she admires the former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov .
Nurmagomedov fought 29 fights during his professional career and achieved 29 victories.
“I wouldn’t say he’s an icon for me, but I love him as a fighter. He’s a legend, he has a superb undefeated record. It’s cool and high level. He always fought with great intelligence and skill. This is how we should act, just assume that I am a basic batsman and use my strengths, ”Zheleznyakova told Metaratings.ru.
