But his archrival, Khabib Nurmagomedov, hasn’t been into any such noteworthy celluloid presentation, despite having a few of them. However, a recent post revealed that there’s a big name who is working to bring some of Nurmagomedov’s life onto the screen. Khabib’s coach, Javier Mendez, recently took to his Instagram and uploaded a snap in between their shoot schedule.

Multiple reports from MMA-coverage houses revealed that UFC authorities can have Nurmagomedov back inside the octagon for their milestone event, the UFC 300.
Such assumptions came from the fact that Nurmagomedov had reportedly trained with his coach, Mendez, a few days back. Even the noted UFC legend, Chael Sonnen, made an entire video assuming the degree of truth behind Khabib’s return rumors. But it was his coach, Mendez, who debunked all such rumors.
