Athletistic/ Boxing. On Saturday, October 21, the UFC 294 tournament took place in Abu Dhabi (UAE). Its main event was the fight between the Russian Islam Makhachev and the Australian Alex Volkanovski. Makhachev knocked out his opponent in the first round and defended his championship title. Former UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov did not come to the fight. He explained his decision.
– You ask, where was I? Why wasn’t he around? I’ve already answered this question, I don’t go to fights, I’m not around and I’ve completely left everything MMA related. I ask you to accept my decision in the same way as my brothers, friends and training partners. What our team achieved will forever remain in the history of this sport,” Nurmagomedov wrote on the social network.
