A humble Khabib Nurmagomedov describes his vanishing stretch in the UFC:
Khabib Nurmagomedov, following his father’s death, vacated his heavyweight title in UFC 254 after defeating Justin Gaethje.
The Eagle stands undefeated in his professional MMA record and has the highest title defenses in the lightweight division, with a title reign of 1077 days.
Khabib has trained and made his buddy Islam Makhachev into an exceptional killing machine in the UFC. In his recent interview with MMA underground, he discusses his stands on UFC now.
The Eagle said, “Believe me, this is not about me. It was just when I was beginning my career, it was BJ Penn time,” Nurmagomedov explained. “After become Frankie Edgar, after become Benson Henderson then Anthony Pettis then [Rafael] dos Anjos then Eddie Alvarez then Conor [McGregor] then it was my time. Now is my time finished. Now is like Charles time, okay? After can become Islam time. You’re not gonna be on this game long time. Professional athletes’ career is very short. You can be on top only like few years. Four, five years and this is go very fast.
“When my time was? Of course, I’m like, ‘No way is people gonna talk about other fighter, other Lightweight.’ Because I’m here. Now I’m finished,” he concluded. “I leave this alone, just let these guys fight for the undisputed title. Islam vs. Charles and that’s it.”
Charles Oliveira’s title got stripped due to weight differences. As he weighed half a pound more than the required weight in UFC 274.
Islam Makhachev has his eyes set on the vacant title. Makhachev possesses an incredible record of 22 wins and 1 loss. The loss happened initially lost in his carrier at UFC 192 against Adriano Martins. Makhachev has been undefeated since then.
Charles Oliveira has a dominant uproar in UFC being unstoppable in his rise. Islam Makhachev vs Charles Oliveira would be an upcoming sensational match in the lightweight division if it happened.
