UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov is one of the most influential MMA fighters when it comes to the social media space. Nurmagomedov has garnered attention through his posts that are oftentimes rather straightforward and to the point. Chiefly, other fighters and personalities who tend to pop off seemingly go out of their way to get a conversation rolling.
A key part of his appeal certainly comes from his in-cage performances that have captured the attention of fans. ‘The Eagle’ has redefined what it means to be a dominant fighter in MMA, and his 29-0 record is a testament to that. Furthermore, his fights often lead to social media engagement like no other, and it’s clear he has a passionate fan base.

Khabib Nurmagomedov: On the fighting front
Social media visibility aside, Khabib Nurmagomedov has garnered attention as of late with his future in the sport. The Dagestani champion has officially announced his retirement following UFC 254, however, he’s still the enlisted champion. Fans are still speculating as to the odds that he will make a sustained return to MMA.
UFC 257 will play a pivotal role in judging whether Nurmagomedov will make a comeback to action. Dustin Poirier and Conor McGregor will square off in a title eliminator, and should McGregor win, there’s a chance that Khabib returns. Dana White has been vocal about the fact that he’s keen to make Khabib vs McGregor 2, should the stars align. Unfortunately for Poirier, he’s unlikely to receive the same treatment given his smaller profile in comparison.
