Well, it looks like the UFC world has got some mixed emotions around a Russian fighter. Back in June 2022, Zabit Magomedsharipov, one of the top featherweight contenders in the UFC, retired from mixed martial arts. It was a tough pill to swallow for all of his fans as many wanted to see him rule the division. But as per him, he had a good reason for hanging his gloves. However, it seems that Magomedsharipov’s fans just can’t let him go. They’re constantly asking him to come back to the sport he once loved and excelled in.

Can you blame them, though? Zabit Magomedsharipov was a force to be reckoned with in the octagon, racking up an impressive list of achievements both inside and outside of MMA.
