Khabib Nurmagomedov, the former lightweight UFC champion, is regarded as one of the greatest MMA fighters to ever grace the UFC cage. Because of his modest character outside of combat, he is also one of the most respected mixed martial artists in the world. Nurmagomedov has asserted on several occasions that he is a devout Muslim. Consequently, he follows the method and credits his behavior to the principles of the faith. His followers adore several of his kind gestures like helping his teammates, respecting his opponents, and more.

While the former UFC champion was trying to educate fans about it, he suffered criticism in return for his NFT collection. Check out some comments from fans below.

‘The Eagle’ wanted to train Ciryl Gane before UFC 285
The former interim heavyweight champion Ciryl Gane recently suffered one of the biggest losses of his UFC career at the hands of Jon Jones. The fight ended in the first round and Gane’s weak wrestling game was exposed.
‘Bon Gamin’ had suffered the same faith when former champion Francis Ngannou out-wrestled him last year. After that loss, Khabib Nurmagomedov offered to train Gane in Dagestan.
The old video came to light after UFC 285. In the interview, Nurmagomedov also offered Gane to bring his whole team to Dagestan to hone his wrestling. However, Gane is yet to respond to the video.
After this loss, ‘Bon Gamin’ will be back on the drawing boards. But it remains to be seen if he improves his ground game for his next fight or not.
What are your thoughts on Gane’s wrestling ability? What do you guys think about fans criticizing Nurmagomedov for his NFT business?
