‘The Eagle’ left MMA after his father’s death

After defeating Justin Gaethje in his final UFC title fight in 2020, ‘The Eagle’ announced his retirement inside the cage. With a 29-0 record, the Russian great retired at the pinnacle of his career.

Khabib Nurmagomedov lost his father and coach Abdulmanap before his battle with Gaethje, leaving a void he couldn’t fill. Following this, Nurmagomedov said that he promised his mother that he would not compete in MMA without his father.

He has since turned down offers costing millions of dollars in order to uphold his pledge. Nurmagomedov is frequently chastised for leaving the game too soon. However, it is natural that he finds it mentally difficult to continue without his idol.
