Magomedov has had 11 professional fights in Russian and Asian leagues and has also competed in kickboxing and Thai boxing in China and Thailand. Due to his textured appearance and striking fights, Magomedov had a serious fan base and received a contract with the UFC on favorable financial terms (according to unconfirmed information – $ 100,000 for the first fight s ‘he wins). At UFC 294, Magomedov defeated Bruno Silva to open the Abu Dhabi tournament card.
— Have you gained a lot of followers on social media?
– Yes, only after weighing 20,000 people were added. Then, after the battle, about 100,000 more. In total for the tournament week, probably 150 thousand.
— You spoke English after the fight. How did you manage to narrow down your language and arrive at this idea?
— My English is at a handicapped level. I can say something somewhere, but I can also spend too much. I know the fundamental words of my profession. Sometimes you know something, but you forget it. When you haven’t spoken for a long time, it takes a week or two to remember.
— How is your head after three laps? The cut on your eye is sealed.
– No it’s OK. My elbow hurts a little, but I put it in the cold and it’s okay. I had another moment like this: two weeks before the fight, before the last sparring, I injured my nose. They accidentally hit me in the head, I thought it was a fracture, but it was a bad bruise. And during the fight he hit me in the nose and started bleeding again. Apparently something broke there.
— You arrived at the hotel early in the morning. Did you celebrate?
— No, we just went out to eat with friends, we were looking for a place in Abu Dhabi. Before the fight I didn’t go out anywhere, I didn’t come here as a tourist, now I will have to study the situation,” Magomedov told .
