Russian UFC fighter Charabutdin Magomedov known as Shara Bullet, spoke to about how he sees his career moving forward.
Magomedov, a 29-year-old middleweight, made his UFC debut last October, defeating Brazilian Bruno Silva by decision. Currently, the athlete’s statistics are 13-0. Magomedov, nicknamed Shara Bullet, is one of the most talked about fighters in Russia due to his distinctive appearance and striking way of fighting.
– Everyone knows that no one will give me the UFC belt now. We probably need to be charged with some kind of success, some kind of motivation, to move forward, to set records, to achieve interesting results. This is only my first fight so far, but I have already made great progress: in the entire history of the UFC middleweight division, I am ranked seventh for successful strikes in a single fight. Hit his opponent 222 times. He’s still the seventh-ranked middleweight in the world, ahead of me are guys like Anderson Silva and Chael Sonen. Their fight is the first. But, as a rule, those before me fought in five rounds.
I would like to attend UFC 299 (March 9) and UFC 300 (April 13), but I know the UFC will hold its first event in Saudi Arabia (June 22). And I want to perform there, at the first tournament in Saudi Arabia. Russia is my homeland. But for Muslims, their second home is there. And the Russian public will be able to get there without problems, there will be no difficulties with a visa. Considering the local flavor, you will have to speed up, win and not disappoint anyone.
— How much do you weigh now, how do you train?
— Now my weight is 90 kilograms, I train once a day and add exercises. But within three to four weeks I will start training twice a day,” Magomedov told .
