After retiring from professional fighting, Khabib Nurmagomedov is using his fame and knowledge in the right direction by growing his other businesses. ‘The Eagle’ earns a fortune throw his businesses, and it is not bad to spend a share in upgrading your ride when you are earning a lucrative amount of money.

Recently, the famous MMA reporter, The Schmo, uploaded a video on his official Twitter account showing Nurmagomedov’s new ride. He posted it from inside the FLX Arena during Eagle FC 46 in Florida.

In the video, we can see a huge matt black fully customized truck. However, the price, model, or brand of the truck is unknown at the time of writing this. Notably, the truck has the ‘Eagle’ logo on its bumper resembling Nurmagomedov’s moniker and his MMA venture.

‘The Eagle’, after departing from UFC, bought his own Russian-based promotion, Gorilla FC, to introduce good Russian fighters to the world. Later, he named the MMA venture after his moniker Eagle FC.

Fortunately, Nurmagomedov’s Eagle FC became a big name in a brief span of time. It grabbed a lot of attention from the fight fans thanks to his huge fanbase.

Hence, he brought the promotion to America this year. The Dagestan native has also signed some of the notable names in Eagle FC and recently had an event featuring ex-UFC fighters Kevin Lee and Diego Sanchez. Apparently, ‘The Eagle’ has now signed a former UFC champion in his promotion.

Ever since wearing the promoter’s cap, ‘The Eagle’ has brought in many former UFC fighters, including Kevin Lee, Diego Sanchez, and Rashad Evans at Eagle FC. Interestingly, Nurmagomedov also has Kamaru Usman, Henry Cejudo, and Chael Sonnen working in the Eagle FC panel.

However, ‘The Eagle’ has added one more feather to his cap by signing the former UFC heavyweight champion, Junior dos Santos. The Brazilian fighter parted ways with UFC in 2020.
