Retired UFC fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov has several teammates and friends in the MMA business. His teammate Movlid Khaybulaev (19-0-1) has been doing extremely well at PFL and was also named the PFL season MVP in the year 2021. Further, when he became the PFL featherweight world champion, ‘The Eagle’ was happy and congratulated his dear friend.
