Khabib Nurmagomedov's Biography
Khabib Abdulmanapovich Nurmagomedov is a mixed martial artist from Dagestan, has received the nickname «Eagle» among athletes. He performs at lightweight in the UFC. After the battle with El Yakvinta in April 2018, the athlete became the first Russian in the history of the UFC with the championship title. Net worth: $30 million.
Childhood and early life
Khabib was born on September 20, 1988, in a traditional Avar family from the small Dagestanian mountain village of Sildi. Almost all local men were hereditary wrestlers, and Khabib's relatives were no exception. His father Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov is a master of sports in freestyle wrestling, his father's brother is the world champion in sambo in 1992, and his maternal uncle is a titled wrestler.

Sport, his father said, is also a job, and it is hard, and a professional athlete should not think how to make a living, otherwise, he will never reach the top.Becoming more mature and stronger, the guy began to stand out against the background of his rivals, and the father-coach realized that his eldest son is a unique nugget, who can force the whole world to speak about him. If before that Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov was more interested in judo and saw his son as a future champion in the tatami, then he realized that Khabib was a potential leader in mixed martial arts. In addition, the guy himself leaned toward combat sambo.

Sports achievements and fights
At the age of 23, Nurmagomedov became the youngest Russian wrestler in the history of the UFC. The Americans immediately appreciated the skill of Khabib and invited the prospective athlete to his organization. From that moment on, the worthy son of the Avar people, nicknamed "Eagle", held many fights on the main rings of the world, each of them ended in his triumph. The symbol of the wrestler was a shepherd's cap – this is how he expresses the pride of his people and devotion to the traditions of the Avars.
2014-15 years were difficult for the athlete: he received several complex injuries and was out of order, although he retained the status of undefeated. In 2016, he triumphantly returned to the ring, confidently defeating Darrell Horcher.
The fight with Michael Johnson finally confirmed the high level of training of the Russian wrestler: the American underestimated the opponent and was defeated in the third round. The judge was forced to stop the fight, as Khabib used a submission lock – Johnson could not even ask to stop the fight.

A lot of splashes were made around the failed fight of Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor, a daring Irish nicknamed «Unreal». Immediately after the victory over Michael Johnson, not yet descended from the ring, Nurmagomedov called Conor to a duel, naming him «an Irish chicken».
McGregor did not begin to practice on a «trash-talk», but hinted that Nurmagomedov needs to earn the fight with him. However, in the summer of 2017, he changed his mind. Being in full preparation for a fight against boxer Floyd Mayweather (and according to the rules of boxing), he still expressed a desire to fight with the abuser in Russia. Later, Khabib said in an interview that the probability of their meeting in December 2017 is very high.

According to Zoomboola.com, on April 7, 2018, Khabib was finally to meet with Tony Ferguson in the ring, but the fight was canceled again. This time through the fault of Tony – he was injured. Nurmagomedov learned the day before the fight about the fact that Al Iakvinta will come in the ring against him instead of Ferguson. The fight ended in the victory of Nurmagomedov (although Al stood all 5 rounds, and Khabib failed to finish the fight ahead of schedule) and in awarding the athlete with a belt of lightweight champion. Thus, he became the first Russian mixed martial artist, who won the UFC champion title.
Personal life of Khabib Nurmagomedov
Khabib professes Islam, he does not drink or smoke, he regularly makes a pilgrimage to Mecca with his brother and strictly observes all the basic commandments of the Koran, including does not fight during Ramadan.For me, fasting in Ramadan is more important than any fightHe tries not to dedicate anyone to his personal life, so until now people around him have not seen the face of his wife, carefully hidden behind a dense veil. She spends all her time at home, raising a daughter (born in 2015) and two boys (born in 2017 and 2019) and prays to Allah for the success and prosperity of her famous husband.
