Life

Nurmagomedow belongs to the Caucasian ethnic group of the Avars . His trademark is a white papacha , a traditional sheepskin headgear that is widespread in the Caucasus region.

Nurmagomedow has been practicing martial arts since he was 6 years old. His father Abdulmanap Nurmagomedow, himself a well-known judoka, trained him. Nurmagomedow trained among other things in the martial arts of sambo , judo , pankration and freestyle wrestling . His battle name is The Eagle .

In September 2008 he made his professional debut with an early victory over the Azerbaijani Vusal Bayramov .

On April 7, 2018, he fought against the American Al Iaquinta for the vacant UFC World Championship and won by a unanimous decision of the judges. Thus Nurmagomedow is the first Russian who (regardless of the weight class) was able to win a UFC world title.

On October 6, 2018, Nurmagomedow defeated former UFC lightweight world champion Conor McGregor by forcing him to give up in the fourth round. After the fight, there was an uproar when Nurmagomedov climbed out of the Octagon after his victory and had a fight with McGregor's teammate Dillon Danis after he had allegedly provoked him. Thereupon two teammates of Nurmagomedov attacked the still recovering McGregor. Nurmagomedov was escorted out of the arena by the police without an award ceremony and under the whistles of the spectators.
