Khabib Nurmagomedov is easily one of the most popular fighters to be a part of the UFC. ‘The Eagle’ has the most amazing MMA record as he is undefeated in 29 professional fights. While Nurmagomedov is a very serious fighter inside the octagon, he recently showed how funny he is outside it.
Recently Nurmagomedov took to Instagram and posted a video of him talking to someone. In that conversation, we can hear Nurmagomedov saying, “I just want to make a lot of money and tell people’s money is not everything for this life.”

What Nurmagomedov said is quite true as a sense of humor is very important to survive in this world. Fighters and celebrities are subject to various trolls, and that can affect them severely. Making money the sole aim of one’s life can be disastrous and that is what ‘The Eagle’ was chiding about.

‘The Eagle’ last fought in the UFC in October 2020- he faced Justin Gaethje at UFC 254. Nurmagomedov won that fight via second-round submission. After that fight, Nurmagomedov had announced his retirement from MMA. This decision came after Nurmagomedov’s father passed away on July 3, 2020, after contracting COVID-19 following heart surgery.
After his retirement, Nurmagomedov bought an MMA promotion in Russia. While Nurmagomedov is heavily involved with MMA even after his retirement, the fighter is also well known for his philanthropic efforts.
