Russian mixed style fighter (MMA) Khabib Nurmagomedov praised the potential of his compatriot Movlid Khaibulaev. The video of the athlete’s interview is available on YouTube.
Nurmagomedov, 33, stressed that he has been training side by side with Khaibulaev for a long time. “Someday he will be one of the best MMA fighters,” he says. Nurmagomedov also drew attention to the fact that his partner was previously known for his wrestling qualities, but over time he also developed skills in striking technique. Nurmagomedov also recalled the spectacular knockout performed by Khaibulaev. In May 2019, he managed to finish Damon Jackson with a jump knee kick. The fight in the Professional Fighting League (PFL) lasted only ten seconds.
Nurmagomedov is known for his performances in the Absolute Fighting Championship (UFC). He is a former champion of the promotion, and Khaibulaev helped prepare for his last fight against Justin Gagey Nurmagomedov. The Russian was one of the key sparring partners.
Khaibulaev performs in the USA, in the PFL. On account of his 19 victories and not a single defeat.
