Manager of the AMC Fight Nights League Kamil Gadjiev in a conversation with , he highly appreciated the contribution of coach Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov to the victory of Gadzhi Rabadanov in the Lightweight Grand Prix of the PFL League.
A 31-year-old student of Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, father and trainer of Khabib Nurmagomedov, Gadzhi Rabadanov knocked out Brent Primus in the third round in the final of the PFL Grand Prix tournament, becoming the organization’s lightweight champion and winning prize money of a million dollars.
— Three students of Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov are now lightweight champions in three major world leagues.
– Lightweights from all over the world become Manapovsky, the explanations are obvious: when people train with each other, train with the best, the level of each fighter increases. I will also note that Gadzhi previously competed in the under 66 kg category, but apparently the transition to lightweight did him good.
— Don’t you think that only inattention to self-promotion can slow down the Dagestan fighters?
— As for the media, the problem does not come from the fighters, but from the PFL. The league has created conditions in which there is a simple principle of competition, and media indicators do not decide anything. It turns out that any fighter can simply fight and make money. And a lot of money. And there you have it, a million dollars. Why, relatively speaking, should Gadji Rabadanov strain himself, post on social networks, intensify the fighting, when the fighting is there, and there is.
— Do you think that with such results, European fighters will soon come to Russia for training camps?
“Sooner or later it will happen and it could already happen if it were not for the political situation that is currently driving us away from each other.” Otherwise, some European fighters would already be at the training camp, some would come to Thailand to train with the Russians. But a little time will pass and they will come back to us, and that’s great,” Gadzhiev told .
