After rumors of retirement have begun to swirl, “The Eagle” has decided to quell any thoughts of the matter. Nurmagomedov will be having an open workout in Moscow next week.
UFC lightweight contender Khabib “The Eagle” Nurmagomedov was set to face Tony Ferguson for the interim lightweight title. Unfortunately, Ferguson was forced to miss weigh-ins, as he was rushed to hospital for weight management issues.
With the fight cancelled, rumors began to bubble up that “The Eagle” was out for good. Now, it would appear that Nurmagomedov is back in training.
As first reported by Tass, and translated by MMA Mania, “The coaching session with the Eagles team members will be held on 1 April in Moscow. It will be attended by Habib Nurmagomedov.” an unnamed source told Tass.
