Khabib Nurmagomedov arguably had one of the best careers inside the octagon. Now, after his retirement, ‘The Eagle’ has been speaking a lot on various topics. For instance, he spoke to Sky Sports about the recent contract dispute going on between Francis Ngannou and the UFC.
The Dagestan-born fighter is high about values and morals. Thus, he said, “I know one thing. If you sign a deal, and you have a contract, you have to follow through. This is just my opinion.”

“I am not against Francis, not against [Dana White] or UFC. I don’t know what they have between them.”
“But I just want to give advice for fighters, for young fighters: when you guys sign a contract, you guys have to read your contracts.”
